Gage was 11, and his right foot hurt so bad that he told his mom it felt like it was on fire! After taking him to see too many doctors to count, his mom finally found one who knew what her son had – CRPS/RSD. This book is the Parents’ Companion Guide to the children’s picture book, Gage & The Invisible Illness.

Gage’s mom shares their family’s journey from the onset of Gage’s “Invisible Illness” to him reclaiming his life as he learned to both live with it and thrive. Despite the fact this autoimmune disorder wreaked havoc on their lives, there were incredible lessons to be learned and moments to cherish. This book is her gift to parents struggling with CRPS/RSD like their family did, in hopes you’ll also find the way through.

Invisible Illnesses are rare, and they harbor secrets that ordinary physicians and people not in the medical profession do not understand. In addition to being put on multiple medications, Gage endured epidurals, spinal taps, and nerve-destroying surgeries. CRPS is a traumatic disease, one that involves extremely painful procedures to attempt to heal it. Gage’s fight to be pain-free was a tough one. But he fought for and earned his remission, for which he will always be his mom’s hero.

With this book, the author hopes to show parents going through this journey that they’re not alone. She’s here to offer you the tips, tools, and resources that helped her family survive and thrive.
