| We’ve all heard the phrase "fall over laughing", but for Jessica Shepherd it was literal. Plaqued by a sudden onset of a mysterious illness that baffled her physicians, she was helpless to stop her life spiraling out of control. One by one, diagnoses were ruled out; and, as each day passed, Jessica grew more and more despondent as she was unable to cope with everyday activities.
Anne Black Gray tells a forthright story about a young girl, a baffling illness, and a lesson for everyone about disabilities. Laughing Sickness: A Medical Mystery should be a must read for every one- especially medical personnel who are so quick to blame anything they can’t definitely pinpoint as being psychosomatic. What starts off as an unsolvable illness ends with hope and courage. A truly inspiring story! | | |
