Praise for Bleeding Orchid
This is a beautifully produced book of poems that deal with a very difficult time in the author’s life, but which really spoke to me about the difficulties in my own life. Grief, Explain and Fatigue are the poems that really stood out to me in this excellent collection. I know I will be revisiting these poems many times. This collection details the diagnosis, treatment and recovery of the author. Anyone who has experienced serious illness can empathize with the betrayal of your body and the pain, fear and shame that goes with it. The horribleness of endless doctors and treatments, even when they are nice, and made all the more difficult when they aren’t. The distance illness drives between you and loved ones, both in mental and emotional understanding as well as through physical limitations. All these subjects and more are dealt with in these honest, brave, moving poems. I applaud the author for sharing and wish her well on her continued journey.
