Chronic Pain Chronicles: Insightful and inspiring stories of resolve, resilience, and relief (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218825119)

In Chronic Pain Chronicles: Insightful and inspiring stories of resolve, resilience, and relief, seasoned journalist Randall H. Duckett writes and reports on the mysterious condition known as chronic pain, hurt that endures for months, years, or even decades beyond normal healing time. Chronic pain is everywhere, affecting one in four American adults as well as one in five US children. If you or a loved one has hurt that won't quit, this book is for you.

Duckett eloquently and honestly tells his own pain story and those of other sufferers, interlaced with scientific research, perspectives from pain experts, and the latest pain news. "I suffer from a genetic disease that causes my bones and joints to deform, causing pain from head to toe" Duckett reveals. "I know how chronic pain really feels, how much it affects my mental health, how it changes every aspect of my life. My pain is like a WWE wrestler battering my body each day."

If you are a fellow sufferer or a family member, friend, or caregiver of one, this book gives you language with which to talk about pain and take action to ease hurt. The message is that you are not alone in what you feel and that sharing about pain heals.
