About the Author:

Jeffrey N. Gingold is an outspoken advocate regarding cognitive disability and has been a federal and state lobbyist.

He is a published freelance writer who lives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with his wife Terri and their two daughters - and one cat.

Review:

Gingold's personal account is a courageous, compelling, and revealing look at the cognitive difficulties accompanying the physical challenges of MS. It is my hope that this book will both validate for patients and their families these more subtle yet devastating symptoms, as well as mobilize physicians to more seriously consider cognitive symptoms in their diagnostic work-up and comprehensive care of their patients." --Dr. Bradley J. Fedderly, Member, Board of Directors, Am --Colleen Kalt, President and CEO of the Wisconsin Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society (Colleen Kalt President and CEO of the Wisconsin Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society 20100503)
