Welcome to Litsy!

Memoir meets medical adventure in this heartfelt, hilarious book exploring the public and private theaters of illness. After a tumor bursts in Mike Scalise‘s brain, leaving him with a hole in the head and malfunctioning hormones, he must navigate a new, alien world of illness maintenance. His mother, who has a chronic heart condition and a flair for drama, becomes a complicated model as she competes with him for the status of "best sick person."

I've been waiting since April for this. It's already made me laugh a bunch of times.

Afternoon reading. 🤘🏻📚❤️
