Abstract

Strong tells what it was like to watch her husband become increasingly debilitated by multiple sclerosis, to deal with the financial burden of illness, to realize that their and their children's futures were changed forever. The personal accounts are interspersed with practical advice about dealing with physicians, handling insurance, and just coping.

Abstract

"The Tool Kit includes:

1) A booklet, which begins with a Self-Test that will help you decide where you want to focus. You might start by taking the Self-Test and then scoring it. Your scores will suggest places to start. It also contains Tip Sheets about specific topics that others have found key in managing their conditions, and illustrations to accompany the exercise audio program.

2) The latest edition of Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions written by experts in the field. Even more important?all the authors have chronic conditions.

3) A relaxation audio program with four different relaxation exercises. The first is only five minutes, for a quick start, and the others are about 15 minutes each.

4) An exercise audio program with three different levels of exercises, all of which can be done at home. If you have not exercised much lately you might want to start with the first level and work your way up. Of course, some of you will want to start at the third level.

We suggest that you spend a couple of hours a week learning and practicing the new skills. There is no right or wrong, so explore to find what works for you to manage better." --publisher

Abstract

"This book is intended to be an easy-to-use resource to help health care professionals improve their approach when teaching people to manage chronic disease. It is evident in the industry that many believe they merely have to tell a patient what to do and it will be done. This book will give nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, and other health care professionals an insight into the expanded role of teaching and helping people make behaviour changes in the face of chronic illness." - Back cover
