Scratch This Katie Lyphout

You are now the honorable owner of an activity book (or scratchpad, if you will) for anyone affected by chronic illness. The exercises contained in this pad are not only beneficial for those who are afflicted by disease but are also valuable and applicable to caregivers and loved ones alike. This book is designed as an aide to help the passage of time during medical treatments, journeys to appointments, and any unbearable sick days. As individuals accustomed to spending a regular amount of time waiting, the authors found their minds continually boggled by impending treatment rather than filled with clarity. With the belief that a sound mind assists in the balancing and stabilizing of the body, Bridget and Katie envisaged a concise space for supporting this notion. As a painter and musician respectively, the two knew the importance of a creative outlet during their propel towards better health. By engaging in this book, the hope is that the reader will be more productive during any downtime and maintain steady leverage over any illness.
