My Tiny Spotted Mind

My Tiny Spotted Mind takes a beautiful, uniquely written, raw journey through the life and mind of Diana Lea Maisonneuve, a Haitian American child, as she details her battle with Multiple Sclerosis. Raised in Long Island, New York, she begins the fight of her life with no awareness or guidance. At only nine years old, her health was fueled by ambiguity and steroids as she battled for two years without a diagnosis. Her immigrant parents struggled to understand how to respond to her rare chronic disease. Diana shows grit as well as fear and bravery as she's learning to navigate through her adolescence while carrying the burden of idiopathic auto-immune disease. With the security and guidance of her mother and grandmother, she yo-yos between the uncertainties of a new school, academics, fear, God, and her new reality.
