Summary

Jen Powley was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at 15. By 35, she had lost the use of her arms and legs.

Just Jen is a powerful memoir that tells the story of Powley’s life at the time of her diagnosis and the infinite, irrevocable ways it has changed since. Powley’s writing pulls no punches. She is lively, bold, and unapologetic, answering questions people are often afraid to ask about living with a progressive disease. And yet, these snapshots from Powley’s life are not tinged with anger or despair. Just Jen is a powerful, uplifting, and unforgettable work by an author who has laid her life - and her body - bare in order to survive.

Ms no-no

I wasn't a fan. Went into it, having ms and hoping to learn something more, had to abandon it. Personally, this ain't for me. Some folk may enjoy, but hearing of my own issues is meh enough.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
