Are We Intrepid or Just Insane? Ginge Gritter

We have been taught that life is a cycle. We are born, we live and then we die. Every once in a while that sequence is disrupted or rearranged. "Are We Intrepid or Just Insane?" deals with such an eruption. This novelette is a cross between Jack Douglas' book, "My Brother Was An Only Child" and 'A Generation of Vipers" by Phillip Wiley. It shares just one of the many category misadventures that the author has endured and circumvented. While in Africa, she found herself having to match wits with an inimitable foe: an incurable, life threatening dysfunctional immune system in the guise of severe Myasthenia Gravis (grave muscle weakness). After researching international data, she came back to the United States and started her quest to health. She soon found herself having to deal with a medical system that was not fully prepared regarding her condition, her ironic sense of humor or resilient spirit. "Are We Intrepid or Just Insane?" tackles some of the frightening and affronting issues experienced through her observations and discernment. You will note that the author has an inverted way of perceiving the various situations that were presented upon her.
