by Susan Griffin. This is another book that i read many years ago when it first came out. The author also had cfids. I really liked that book at the time when I read it. Have to re read it and see how i like it now. She is much more thoughtful, intelligent and mature than the writer of that other book by a cifds author. She talks about how sick and poor people are marginalized by society. But, this time, I won't rave about it as I have just restarted to read it.

Yup, the author of Love and Fatigued in America.
I started out loving that book but really didn't like the guy after reading more, he seamed like a creepy, perverted user of damaged women. He made some other note about feeling bad for child molesters rather than the victems that just sickened me beyond words. I was so mad I paid money for that book and felt so mad that such a creep had published a book about our illness that already has such a dicey reputation. Oh well, what can ya do, illness hits anyone and everyone.
