When the journalist Anita Botwin went to live in Uruguay, far away from her family and friends, she never imagined that she would receive news that would change her life forever: she suffered from multiple sclerosis. In this book, the author offers us a sincere testimony about the path taken to accept the disease; from the discovery of the first symptoms to her struggle to make functional diversity visible. And she takes the opportunity to launch a fiery and studied argument in favor of public services. All this through a direct, raw and powerful writing. A story full of pain, but also of strength and hope; an experience that will bring us closer to realities outside the norm.
