David Spero

I am the author of The Art of Getting Well: a Five-step Plan for Maximizing Health When You Have a Chronic Illness (Hunter House 2002).

I am a nurse and health educator, living with multiple sclerosis for the last 20 years or so. My work is helping people overcome barriers to self-care. I specialize in serving people with diabetes and weight issues.

I write regularly for Diabetes Self-Management, Arthritis Self-Management, MS Focus and Alternative Medicine magazines.

My new book, The Politics of Diabetes, will be out in 2005. I also create relaxation tapes and inspirational videos.

I do have other interests, including music, mammals, peace, justice, food, dancing and fun.
