Having a chronic condition means not only suffering from the symptoms themselves but from the underwhelming response to that suffering. In this bold art journaling and survival guide, Author/Illustrator Evie Lennon shares lessons learned as an art teacher, hospital chaplain and autoimmune patient.

Although her job in a Level Two Trauma Center frequently placed Lennon in the Emergency Department and Intensive Care Unit, she now addresses the hidden emotional blows and trauma often experienced outside of the hospital by people with long term disability and disease.

Lennon offers eye-opening insights as well as proven creative healing projects that will nourish the spirits of the people who are engaged in health battles and encounters with the well-intentioned.

Above all, this densely packed book delivers overdue support for the unseen battles and unsung valor that has gone unrecognized for too long. Jampacked with whimsical illustrations, and powerful encouragement, "DRAWING Comfort" manages to be as empowering as it is entertaining. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll color.
