This book describes the symptoms and other aspects of the colitis disease and defines in layman's terms what the sufferer can expect without patronizing and without resorting to jargon that many other worthwhile but earnest journals use.
The author has approached the subject in a step-by-step sequence from symptom to medication and ongoing care but has balanced this material by giving a frank and soul-bearing analysis of his life with colitis and the steps he took and lessons learned, so that a new sufferer can educate themselves on the pitfalls to be avoided.
Told in a humorous way, the embarrassment of the subject is instantly overcome and provides comfort to the reader.
The detail of the illness and the prescriptions and examinations required are all dealt with in a deliberately dispassionate way that is neither coy nor euphemistic.
If the sufferer from this quite debilitating disease wants to derive some comfort and ease from worry, then this book should provide the solace they seek....More >< Less
