"If you've ever wondered about national health care, and thought that Hillary Clinton was going to be our Savior when it comes to funding research on any disease, you'd better read this book. Kondracke, a Democrate, reveals the truth about the Clinton's attitude about their pet health issue vs funding of research in other areas. The story of Kondracke's wife Milly was interesting, insightful, and sad. I know several people who have Parkinson's and MS, and this book gave me much insight into not only what is happening inside their hearts and minds, but also empathy for the loved ones around them. I read this book in an evening, and the time was well-spent."
