Items related to Tales from the Bed: A Memoir
Jenifer Estess is a beautiful, successful, thirtysomething New Yorker with dreams of starting her own family when she is diagnosed with ALS, a fatal disease. Doctors tell her to max out her credit cards and prepare to die. That is precisely when Jenifer starts to live - dreaming deeper, working harder, and loving endlessly. A girlhood pact with her sisters Valerie and Meredith - nothing will ever break us apart - inspires Jenifer as she faces down her most vicious enemy. Beautifully written and wholly inspiring, Jenifer's memoir forces us to reconsider society's notion of "having it all", and illustrates, more than anything, the power of memory, work, and, most of all, love.

-- Michael J. Fox
