There is a new book being written about coping with neuropathic diseases,
which is a collection of stories from patients about their daily lives and
how they deal with their disease.  

Anyone wishing to contribute a story to this endeavor should please contact James Kilpatrick with the Myositis Support Group (out of Dallas).

James Kilpatrick can be reached either through his website MyositisSupportGroup,  or by phone:  903-675-6825, or by mail:

"Coping with a Myositis Disease" Book

This book, written by individuals with a Myositis (muscle) disease, tells their own experiences in learning about this chronic muscle disorder, the changes in their lives, in their family, and their new lifestyle.  This took should be read by all newly diagnosed Myositis patients and their families.

"I read the Myositis stories submitted for the book.  They are fantastic, as I learned much from them.  These finer details from the patient's perspective can not be found even in the most specialized textbooks."

- Dr. Aziz Shaibani,
Director of Nerve & Muscle Center of Texas, Houston
