Sobre IBD

Experience the hardships endured, the obstacles overcome, and the exquisite happiness won as Shirley reveals her endless shine. Replete with over 100 photos and childhood drawings, The Revelation of a Star’s Endless Shine unveils the gripping true life story of child prodigy Shirley Cheng--a blind and physically disabled victim and survivor of severe juvenile rheumatoid arthritis but more so of falsehoods in American medical system--and her loving mother Juliet Cheng. From Juliet’s victory over injustice in her 1990 internationally reported custody case against a doctor over treatment dispute to the elation of Shirley’s various academic and personal achievements, this autobiography will empower readers with life’s true values and meanings.
