Ms. Duren has written a work of commendable perfection. In style, content, and supreme organization, My Bout with Lupus now takes its place on the universal bookshelf of masterpieces.

There can be no doubt about her originality. She tells an unusually touching story in a colorful, lighthearted language unique to a contemporary Californian with roots in Cleveland, Ohio, and West Virginia, all of which she is . . . and has . . . None of which she denies.

She also can take on tough situations successfully. Her completion of this fine book, despite overwhelming odds, proves that. And her application of spiritual tools such as prayer, fasting, and positive thinking along the way proves her to be steadfast in her faith.
