This book is a wonderful book. It is used every day, in a group session of 10-15 individual that are chronic pain suffers. The auther could make a fortune if she would rerelease it. I have been looking for another copy for ages!

This review is from: Living With it Daily: Meditations for People with Chronic Pain (Paperback)

I went through three years of weekly pain management counseling which doesn't compare to the teachings and inspirations from this book. I have dealt with severe fibromyalgia for nearly 20 years. My doctor was sees only "worst cases" of fibromyalgia has told me that of his nearly 100 patients with fibromyaliga that I have one of the most severe cases yet by far the most positive attitude. I attribute all of that to this book. My favorite quotation that I live by references how when you are having a very bad, extremely painful day to reflect on how lucky we are that not everyday is that extreme. This book is about recognizing the positive around you and learning how to put the pain and other unfortunates in our life in their place. It's very unfortunate that this book is not out in distribution. I have told countless doctors and fellow patients about how great it is.

5.0 out of 5 stars pain support group in a book, February 7, 2003

I first used this book when I had tendonitis and other pain problems. The index is very good and useful. This is written from the point of view of someone WITH chronic pain, not the doctors and people who give you tons of advice. I have currently loaned my book to a friend who is recovering from breast cancer. This book fits any and all pain situations and truly covers all areas of life. I heartily recommend this book to anyone with chronic pain-especially when it is intense and constant.
