Upset with the fact that her symptoms were only getting worse, this romance novelist decided the only way to fight back against her deteriorating health was to turn her misfortune into something positive. She found her true calling as a patient advocate for migraine, cluster headaches, heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia.
