This humor filled, inspirational memoir tells the story of the months leading up to, and the year following the author's diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, and the zany adventures that transpired. Yvonne's story helps us all laugh at the insanity that comes from life with a chronic illness and helps readers to understand that with a sense of humor, you can survive almost anything! Yvonne deSousa's diagnosis of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis came with an insightful declaration from a new doctor ("MS sucks") and a brother's helpful advice ("You could totally get one of those handicapped parking plates now"). What followed was a year of MS-adventures: MS Madness! is available in both print and ebook formats. Book Details: MS Madness! By Yvonne deSousa Publisher: SDP Publishing Published: February 2014 ISBN: 978-0989972369 ASIN: B00IMQLFHG Pages: 233 Genre: Memoir, Humor, Self-Help, Motivational From The Author: Yvonne deSousa has worked as a street sweeper, a shell seller, a babysitter, a candy peddler, and a guest house manager, all before the age of sixteen. Later on she worked as a waitress, sales clerk, library assistant, victim’s advocate, and at the front desk of a doctor’s office. Two years before Yvonne’s diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, a relative volunteered her to write an article for a local newspaper. Little did she know it was the beginning of a writing career. When MS threatened to turn her into a lunatic, she started writing more frequently and quickly discovered that writing about the insanity that is MS was helping to keep her sane. Her work has appeared on CapeWomenOnline.com, and in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Finding My Faith and Something On Our Minds, Volumes 1 and 2. Yvonne also writes a weekly blog on www.yvonnedesousa.com, the website that uses a giggle stick to beat up on MS. Since finishing MS Madness! A “Giggle More, Cry Less” Story of Multiple Sclerosis, she has started presenting programs designed to help others use humor to help cope with chronic illness. Yvonne enjoys writing, laughing, and resting. She lives by her personal motto, “my MS is not your MS and your MS is weird!” For review copies, author interviews, or more information please contact: Yvonne deSousa Email: Yvonne@yvonnedesousa.com Website: http://yvonnedesousa.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ End
