Kelly McCracken Barnhill has created an easy-to-understand handbook that is suitable as a reference resource for medical professionals, parents, and patients.

The reader will find this an invaluable guide through the maze of dysautonomia. – Ainsley R Glenn, Founding Director, Dysautonomia Advocacy Foundation
