The Face Laughs While the Brain Cries

I just finished The Face Laughs while the Brain Cries by Stephen L. Hauser M.D and here are my thoughts.

Stephen Hauser is an M.D who specializes in neuroimmunology and his work has revolutionized our understanding of MS and developed the only therapy for the autoimmune disease.

This book is a memoir based book with a lot of excellent information on autoimmune diseases which I loved personally because I myself have rheumatoid arthritis, a very aggressive autoimmune disease that attacks the joints and organs.

The book was so well written and the fact that he came from a modest upbringing and had challenges, was so inspiring. It was a super easy read full of great information and so very entertaining at the same time. I don't read much in the way of memoirs but wow, this one was so good I couldn't put it down.

The memoir covers most of his life and it was never a dull moment and he truly made me believe anything is possible. His success came at a price and he used his losses to make the world better for people with MS. A true hero!

5 stars - Thank you @stmartinspress for my gifted copy.
