"This kind of comprehensive guide to dystonia has long been needed. It will be an invaluable resource to patients, their families and caregivers."-Bonnie Strauss, President and Founder, The Bachmann-Strauss Dystonia & Parkinson Foundation, Inc.
""Living Well with Dystonia" is an extraordinary resource written by an extraordinary man. Dr. Daniel Truong has dedicated his professional life to the Dystonia community and we have been blessed by his dedication. Without his leadership, inspiration, financial and professional help there probably would not be a National Spasmodic Dysphonia Association."- Larry Kolasa, Co-Founder/Past President, National Spasmodic Dysphonia Association
"Dr. Daniel Truong and co-authors have done a great service to patients with blepharospasm and other forms of dystonia by providing a clear and readable discussion of the disorders, their causes and therapeutic alternatives. Ignorance enhances fear and disability, whereas knowledge allows patients and their families to optimally adjust to chronic conditions, thereby improving their quality of life. This book should be read by all dystonia suffers and their loved ones."-Mary Lou Koster Thompson, President, Benign Essential Blepharospasm Research Foundation--Mary Lou Koster Thompson"President, Benign Essential Blepharospasm Research Foundation"
