I'd love some feedback on this book cover for "Patient Enough", a work that will center on the critical or chronic illness journey from both sides of the bed.

For 47 years, I was accused of drug or attention-seeking. I spent 10 years waiting for the doctors to follow up on the excruciating pain I was in. I didn't want pills, I craved relief. I hardly wanted the horribly uncomfortable air mattress, but we all get what we get.

Now, I am joining with 11 others who have been through a medical system woefully under qualified and over-judgemental. This compilation will include stories that will leave you speechless, but wanting to take action.

It's time we stop blaming the ones who were born ill, and work towards making this life inclusive for all.
