A collection of 24 short stories
Do you want to be healthy? The characters in this book know their health, both mental and physical, is important, even if they sometimes take it for granted, or behave in ways which aren't in their best interests. They learn there are things we can do to help us stay healthy, such as eating well, getting some exercise and planning ways to reduce our risk of problems. The cure mustn't be worse than the cause though. Having fun is essential, and as Aoife discovers, sometimes a slice of cake is just what the doctor ordered!
Although there are some medical issues we can't control, from illness and infection, through accidents and bad luck, to conditions we're born with, there are ways to cope. Maybe you'd like to walk on a mountain like Merryn, go speed dating as Jenny does, or join Sue in dressing in nothing but strategically placed fig leaves? Or perhaps you'll stick to more conventional options, just as Aggie and Lizzie do.
The characters in this book explore a variety of ways to live healthier happier lives, no matter what their medical situation. Whether sick or well, helping ourselves or others, we all have stories to tell. This book contains 24 of them.
