A former reporter and freelance writer, Judith Lynn Nichols has had MS for almost 30 years. She lives with her husband in Cincinnati, Ohio, and has two grown daughters. The group of online MS sisters-or "The Froup," as they call themselves-live all over the U.S., and their voices and lives appear throughout the book.
A follow-up to Women Living with Multiple Sclerosis (LJ 4/1/99), this edited collection of e-mail "conversations" provides anecdotal and personal information contributed by women with multiple sclerosis. The "MS Sisters" discuss how they deal with their disability and their reactions to a variety of situations and challenges. One woman writes, "Never give up. Having MS isn't any fun, that's for sure. But it's not terminal and not always horrible. Keep a positive attitude." Another says about her diagnosis: "In many respects it was a relief to know that there was a physical cause and that I wasn't just 'cracking up.' " Although this book is not designed to provide medical information, the insights provided can be a source of affirmation and consolation to other readers with MS. Recommended for all general health collections, caregivers, and physicians of MS patients.DMary J. Nickum, Lakewood, CO
