An excerpt from Richard Cohen's book "Strong at Broken Places". The excerpt introduces you to the five people Richard writes about and the chronic illness they suffer with. It's very moving. The pages are vividly written and make you want to read more.

Interesting look at Mr. Cohen's book about people with disabilities that really affect their quality and quantity of life. They are good inspiration.

This is a well-written (well.. well excerpted?) snapshot into the lives of some people dealing with chronic illness.
