Alexander, Allison

 
9781777087821: Super Sick: Making Peace with Chronic Illness

Synopsis

Superheroes aren’t sick. They certainly don’t have chronic pain, sexual dysfunction, or diarrhea. After all, spandex suits and sudden bowel movements don’t mix. Do they? With raw sincerity and tongue-in-cheek humour, Alexander holds nothing back while discussing how to navigate doctors, dating, sex, friendships, faith, and embarrassing symptoms. Part memoir, part research, part pop culture analysis, Super Sick offers a friendly hand to anyone with chronic illness, a reminder that they aren’t alone and have much to offer the world. With a new foreword, updated information, and bonus materials, this second edition is a must-read for anyone who has—or knows someone who has—a chronic illness.
