Focusing on four raw and complex firsthand accounts, plus Williams's own story, this book examines the consequences of living with interconnected illnesses and conditions like: immunodeficiency; cancer; endometriosis; alcoholism; severe depression; PTSD. Western medicine, which intends to cure illness and minimize pain, often causes more loss, abuse, and suffering for those Americans who don't fit within the narrow definition of who the system was built to serve--cis, white, heterosexual men. The book explores the many ways in which those receiving medical care are often overlooked, unseen, and doubted by the very clinicians who are supposed to heal them. What's Wrong? is also a beautiful celebration of nontraditional modes of healing, of how we become whole not because of health care but despite it"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Acquisitions, SSP   in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.108 Williams Checked out 06/07/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   in Processing   Add Copy to MyList
