New Book in the Club
It’s Too Hard to be Sick in America: Stories of Chronic Illness is new by CT’s own Jennifer Jaff, Executive Director of Advocacy for Patients with Chronic Illness. The book details the stories of people struggling with long term illness, including Jennifer’s own story. No statistics, no analysis and no political spinning can make the case for fundamental system reform the way narratives from the real world do. Read the review by Karen Nepomuceno, CT Health Policy Project intern.
