“Moving…. The book succeeds in capturing the manifold nature of illness. Jane’s hospital stay is indeed nightmarish, she is beset by giant birds, nurses dancing the cancan, and human-sized pill bottles screaming ‘eat me.’”
– Kirkus Review. Recommended. Our verdict: Get it!

“Truly gifted writers can make any topic a thing of wonder, and that’s what Ms. Robbins has done with her glorious, painful, funny, scary, and completely spectacular new book. A spirit-filling, courage-bringing talisman.”
– Celeste Fremon, The Los Angeles Times

“Myasthenia gravis attacked Jane Marla Robbins, and in this book she launches a brilliant counterattack. Her weapons, that embrace and actually suffocate it, are: wit, humor, word play, music, and yes, JOY.”
– Jimmy Roberts, composer, “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change”
