Kicking My AS: Life and Lessons of Ankylosing Spondylitis

Kicking My AS: Life and Lessons of Ankylosing Spondylitis

At 8:12 on a sunny, September morning my doctor's assistant called. "How far are you away from a hospital?" she asked. And so began what would ultimately be my life with Ankylosing Spondylitis, also known as AS... AS literally impacts millions of American lives, yet is a disease very few people have heard of, let alone understand. Mention "cancer" to someone and they inevitably say, "Oh!" Say â€Ankylosing Spondylitisâ€ to that same person and they'll say, â€œHuh?â€ While the lack of knowledge of AS is understandable, it leads to misunderstandings and, ultimately, frustrations for not only the millions of sufferers AS but their friends, family and acquaintances. What follows is a brief journey through Ankylosing Spondylitis. It is intended for both the sufferers of AS and their loved ones, and is an abridged version of what I've experienced, what it is, what sufferers say and â€“ ultimately â€“ how it has made me a better person. It is a story of information, frustration and â€“ ideally â€“ hope. Author's note: This is a self-published guide and it is succinct (you'll read in approximately 30 minutes) and there is a typo or two; I've priced it the lowest Amazon will allow - the goal isn't to make money but to share my experience for other people impacted by AS. I highly recommend reading the Introduction before purchasing the book. Thank you!
