“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”

“As a physician and patient myself with Myasthenia gravis, I say this book is what we all needed - belly-aching laughter, deep-throated anger, tears of tenderness, and hope for cures.”
- Dr. Lisa Plymate, internist and geriatrician, living with MG for 6 years
