Signposts on the Road to Wellville
“Jamie Barlow leans over the gas tank of her Harley, pushing it into turns at speeds significantly above the posted 50 mph limit. As the farmhouses and occasional trailers blur by the roadside, she knows a sixty-something helmetless widow ripping down these back roads like an escaped convict will cause some tongues to wag. She doesn’t care. Let them talk. They always had. They always would.”
MS is hard on everyone–the person who lives with the disease and those who live with the person with the disease. Its toll on family caregivers can be especially hard. As a wife and caregiver, Vanita knows exactly how hard it can be. She's captured those experiences and emotions in Air Mask, her first book of poetry.
Air Mask is a record of trial and triumph, both Vanita's and her husband's. It reaches out to those who have been tested by the daily struggles of living with multiple sclerosis and other chronic diseases.
