"My Healthcare Is Killing Me, a Personal Journal" Now Available on Amazon.com

New book chronicling one woman's battle with cancer and the healthcare system now available on Amazon.com

Miami - September 4, 2015 - (Newswire.com)

My Healthcare is Killing Me, A Personal Journal, a memoir of one woman’s painstaking and frustrating battle with both cancer and the American healthcare system, is now available on Amazon.com. In the provocative new book, first time writer Julie Klein shares her deeply personal story of survival and resilience.  Klein's book is not only about surviving cancer, but a call-to-action about the fierce determination it takes to confront and navigate the shocking realities of an unsympathetic, uncaring healthcare system.

Klein brings readers with her on her journey and spells out the emotional, physical, and financial toll that illness takes on even the strongest and most self-sufficient individuals.  Readers are there with her as she battles her insurance company for appropriate and timely care, interacts with insensitive medical staff and deals with mistakes and delays that threaten her life.  Through it all, Klein finds the humor and irony in her experience and infuses the book with laugh-out-loud anecdotes.

Klein's ultimate betrayal comes when she receives a cancellation notice from her HMO. She is then forced down the hopeless road of trying to find quality, affordable healthcare at the sickest, darkest and weakest time in her life.  With My Healthcare is Killing Me, A Personal Journal, she puts a face and name to the millions of Americans who daily endure these same unspoken challenges.

“Cancer is a lonely, isolating, traumatic and life-altering event that can strike anyone.  Having to battle the healthcare system at the same time makes it doubly painful,” said Klein.  “I had a very rude awakening when I got sick.  In writing this book, I want both cancer patients and other people who are experiencing the healthcare system’s failings to know that they are not alone.  I’m writing it as a call to action.  We need a more compassionate healthcare system in this country.”

My Healthcare is Killing Me, A Personal Journal is now available in paperback and for Kindle at http://www.amazon.com/My-healthcare-killing-personal-journal-ebook/dp/B00TUN86WM .
