My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This e-book has been in My Digital Library since 2017 when I downloaded it as a promoted item.
This historical fiction tells the story of a young mother diagnosed with tuberculosis in 1950s. The best therapy was isolation in a sanitarium to prevent contagion and treatment with streptomycin, isoniazid, and rifampin. Those medications were still used when I was a pharmacist in the end of the 20th century.
A chronic and life-threatening illness can expose strengths and weaknesses for generations in a family.
I recommend this book.

About Me
- Dee Renee Chesnut
- I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.
