This episode kicks off a series featuring women who have written memoirs, hybrids and creative non-fiction. It's fitting to start with the newly released memoir beautifully written by the co-host of the series, Patti M Hall. 

Over 30 million-plus children in North America suffer from rare, chronic, or incurable diseases. Every person who loves and cares for one of these children may have a unique tale of the diagnostic treatment odyssey. Still, Patti's commonalities and the experiences of many other parent's heartaches and despair make this story everyone's story.
