Just wanted to give you plenty of warning, so you won't miss this...
Our own Toni Bernhard, author of the wonderful book How To Be Sick, was interviewed on NPR. Her interview will be broadcast on Monday, January 10's Morning Edition. She's not sure exactly when during the show it will be broadcast, but if you miss it, you can listen to it on the Morning Edition website after the show.
You can read my review of How To Be Sick at my book blog. It's a wonderfully comforting, helpful book for anyone dealing with chronic illness...or any other difficult aspect of life, for that matter.
Congratulations, Toni!
Now it's time for me to listen to my own favorite NPR show, Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me (hilarious!).
I have had Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) since March 2002. Both of my sons also got ME/CFS at ages 6 and 10. Our younger son fully recovered after 10 years of mild illness. Our older son still has ME/CFS and also has Lyme disease plus two other tick infections. This blog is about how our family lives with chronic illness, with a focus on improving our conditions and enjoying our lives in spite of these challenges.
Wait, Wait is my husband's favorite show -- when we were dating he couldn't wait for me to hear it :)
ReplyDeleteI've been listening to a lot of radio these last few months. I just listened to America's Test Kitchen on NPR. I didn't even know they did a radio show. I'll have to listen to Toni's show on the internet. I'm not a morning person.
ReplyDeleteYay! So excited for Toni!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for mentioning the show, Sue. But what I really want to share is that Wait Wait Don't Tell Me is my favorite NPR show too!
ReplyDeleteMy "commentary" as they call it (it's not an interview but a tape of me reading a piece that I wrote -- although they heavily edited it to be short enough for their allotted time) will be up on Morning Edition's website later in the day.
Thanks again, Sue!
I hadn't heard of this book, and now I MUST read it!
