The idea for HONEST MEDICINE started germinating in 2002, when my husband Tim was in the hospital with a non-healing post-surgical head wound caused when his suture line wouldn't heal.

Nothing worked.  Then, through a friend and colleague, Dr. Carlos Reynes, I found Silverlon, a different kind of wound-healing system. Just hours after placing Silverlon on Tim’s head, his skin started to heal. I was elated. (You may read about our experience here.)�...

She asked if I’d like to review it for HonestMedicine. When I said yes, she contacted Sharyn Rosenblum, the book’s wonderful PR person at Harper Collins. In a few days, I had a copy. “An Uncertain Inheritance” is one of those truly memorable reads. It is, as its press materials state, “an eloquent collection of essays,” in which some famous (and some not-so-famous) writers “reveal their experiences in caring for family members through illness and death.” But this description just scratches the surface. It is much more. This book is like those wonderful short story ...
