I’m so sorry you went through medical gaslighting with your son. That must have been particularly difficult and frustrating! I’m going to look up your books, and I hope we can meet or collaborate at an event as well!

I’m one of the many who has fought to be accurately diagnosed. I struggled as a mom, too, for the three years my son deteriorated with an undiagnosed brain tumor. Medical gaslighting is at the core of both of my stories. Perhaps someday we’ll collaborate on an author event! (My 2023 memoir is Growth: A Mother, Her Son, and the Brain Tumor They Survived.)

Thanks for your message, Jayna! I don’t know “A Name of Her Own,” but I just looked it up and it looks like a great read. Thanks so much for the suggestion! If you end up reading Stone Creek, I hope you’ll let me know what you think:)

I’m looking forward to reading your book! I wonder if you know “A Name of Her Own”, by Jane Kirkpatrick.
