Synopsis:
Shelley Peterman Schwarz was diagnosed with MS in 1979. Despite the limitations imposed by the disease, she has managed to live a remarkably unlimited life, in large part because her creativity and resourcefulness have been applied to dealing with obstacles and inabilities as problems waiting for a solution. This book is filled with tips, techniques, and shortcuts Shelley learned from personal experience and from the people around her. Several guiding principles that underlie her labor-saving suggestions are those that everyone with a chronic medical condition like MS should know . For example, alternate periods of activity with periods of rest, plan ahead, and take advantage of labor-saving devices and new technology. Her nationally syndicated "Making Life Easier" column is the result of years of problem solving. The column appears in newspapers and magazines around the country, including Inside MS. In this book, you'll learn the most basic lessons for conserving time and energy to be able to do more of the things you want to do. Using these techniques, you'll be more organized and able to work smarter. And, most important, you'll be more independent than you otherwise would have been. These tips will help you increase the number of good days you have and encourage you to develop your own techniques for making life easier. Finding ways to adapt, modify, and simplify your life will give you the greatest opportunity to be happy and enjoy each day to the fullest.
