A journal of one woman's descent into the hell of severe, crippling, deforming Rheumatoid Arthritis; her successes-turned-to-failures with conventional treatments - gold salts injections,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I had RA for 20 years before finding a book about it I could connect with. Through Nies personal experiences, beautifully rendered, I started to analyze my own struggles and think about life style choices I have made and others that I need to question again. Her book compels me to question western medecine and realize that by listening to my body more closely, I can take care of my arthritis and my soul in a more fruitful way. A must read for any woman with RA at any age.
What a beautiful little jewel of a book.

When a friend gave me this book I put it on the coffee table to read when I "had some time". Well, I finally had some time and wished I had picked this up the night it was given to me. This is not just another recovery book. Filled with light and insight, the words tumble over each other in a rush to be read. Barbara pulled me into her world and it was so much more than a book about living with Rheumatoid Arthritis. It is a book about life. I haven't been this absorbed and delighted, so caught up in a book since I read Barbara Kingsolver's "High Tide in Tucson". "Finding Ways" was a joy to read and Barbara is a talented and gifted writer. I can't wait for her next work and this one will be finding its way onto all my friends bookshelves this year. What a beautiful little jewel of a book.
