Lori Gottlieb:
I loved your book!! I found myself in tears at times, and also laughing out loud. I also found gems that helped me personally (the book is dogeared in those spots!) Thank you for your candor, kindness, and self-examination. I am curious....did you ever get a diagnosis of your chronic illness? I am a Sjogren's patient and I have a feeling some of what you are experiencing is due to Sjogren's.
Lori Gottlieb
So glad you enjoyed the book, Linda! It's not clear exactly what's going on, but it does seem to be immune-related. I hope you are doing okay with managing your Sjorgren's.

Hi Lori! Thank you for your wonderful book! As a cancer survivor who has recently lost her breasts, mom, sister to cancer, and marriage, your book made me cry, smile and reflect. I catch myself being paralyzed by fear of recurrence due to the genetic nature of my cancer and saw many parallels with your obscure diagnosis. Thank you for the brilliant quotes that help me move forward. How are you doing?

Lori Gottlieb:
I'm thinking about talking to a therapist. I am ashamed about it and will not tell anybody. Why do you think people are so uncomfortable with the concept of talking to someone about a problem? Do you think I can resolve my problem (former best friend has distanced herself from me) in just a few sessions?

Not exactly a question, but wondered if you knew libraries are unable to get your book _Maybe You Should Talk to Someone_ in audio format? Here is the explanation: "The eAudio was published by Audible, and they (and Brilliance) do not sell their titles in eAudiobook format to libraries. Unfortunately they have also not made it available for purchase on audiobook CD format." Can you fix it? Thank you!
