Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness by Susannah CahalanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Another thank you to Alicia (my daughter in law) for this scary, but needed book! Susannah's mystery illness grabbed her, throwing her into seizures, anger, rigid walking, not eating, highs and lows, but not easily diagnosed. She is a journalist and her captivating writing along with her father's notes, her medical files, notebooks her divorced parents used to keep up with her harrowing descent into madness, tells unflinchingly her awful dilemma of being misdiagnosed until one doctor figured out why her brain was on fire. A must read!!!
