A new book is coming out and the author is fabulous! Many of you know Kimberly Rae, and she has her book launching June 27. Here is what she says: Author Kimberly Rae has Addison’s disease, hypoglycemia, asthma and a cyst on her brain. She knows what it is like to live tired of dependence on medication, guilty over needing help, and frustrated over fielding the frequent comment, “But you don’t look sick!” Her new book, Sick & Tired, is for the nearly 1 out of every 2 people in America who live with chronic illness. Let’s find out more: Tell us why you wrote Sick & Tired. After having health problems for over 15 years, I wanted a book that was funny, empathetic, encouraging, and a reminder that God loved me and had a purpose for me despite my limitations and pain. I couldn’t find that book, so I wrote it! I want others to read my book as a safe place where they feel believed, understood, and where they find a few reasons to smile! Why do you believe this book is needed? People with chronic illness struggle with feeling alone in a healthy world, trying to pretend they can keep up, worried others think they are lazy or making their condition up. They are frustrated over doctors who chalk up their symptoms to depression, as well as the very real emotions of discouragement that naturally accompany lingering pain or an illness they always have to fight but can never defeat. People who suffer chronically need encouragement, help, and reasons to laugh! That’s what this book is for. What are some of the book topics? How to explain your condition with confidence. The real and important process of grieving your loss. What to do when you’re ready to snap. Freedom from the weight of what other people think. When the smallest activities become a major hassle. The loss of your old identity and the presence of this new person you may not like yet. Moving forward. When is your book due for release? It’s up for launch June 26, 2013, on my birthday!! I’m doing some giveaways for the event, so sign up for the newsletter at kimberlyrae if you want the exclusive offers!
