Publisher Description

Burning Rubber tells the compelling story of a registered nurse and single mom of three who took a dying man back to his home in Myanmar, and all the complications that ensued. After returning to Vancouver, her health began to decline to the point of having to retire from her profession.

Listen about medical conditions like Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS) and Fibromyalgia (FM) that turn life upside down. It's a story about loss of purpose, grief, abuse, PTSD, addiction and recovery, perseverance and bravery. It's a story about travelling in wheelchairs in Asia and singing elephants. It's a story of metaphorical burning rubber – constant motion, and constantly running up against the healthcare system. It's a story of tenacity and stubbornness, and of finding the purpose of life after disability.
