Vancouver artist Sandra Yuen MacKay has an abnormality of the brain - a disease called schizophrenia. As she says, "my life is schizophrenic because I have schizophrenia. It will always be there." Much of her life has been a struggle to cope with the symptoms of her disease and the side effects of the medications required to keep those symptoms in check. Early in her life, Sandra started to exhibit the typical symptoms of this disease which came as a surprise to her unsuspecting family. Her book chronicles her struggles, hospitalizations, encounters with professionals, return to school, eventual marriage, and success as an artist, writer and advocate. "Remarkably compelling...the book takes on a life if its own...a gripping narrative" Library Journal "There are precious few people who have experienced psychosis and can convey it accurately, clearly, and concisely. Sandra MacKay's story is an important one for all of us in the mental health field --doctors, patients, and their families. It is imperative that we take in the lessons she is imparting to us all, on how to manage, and in many ways, triumph, over chronic mental illness." Julie Holland, MD author, Weekends at Bellevue: Nine Years on the Night Shift at the Psych ER., New York city

Great Lightweight Pullover
Color: Faded Denim Heather, Size: X-Large
I'm 5’8” and about 240 lbs, and I went with an XL for this light grey quarter-zip pullover. Fit is spot-on, not too tight, not overly baggy. The material is lightweight and breathable but still feels like it has some substance, making it perfect for layering or wearing on its own in mild weather. The fabric has a nice stretch to it, which adds to the comfort and ease of movement, and it holds its shape well. The zipper is high quality, smooth to zip and feels durable. Color is true to the description, a clean, versatile light grey that pairs easily with joggers or jeans.

Great shirt, good quality.
Color: Light Blue Melange, Size: Large
This brand is solid, really good quality material and a great look and price. Maelreg continues to impress me, I've now purchased 6-8 of their shirts/hoodies and 2 pair of joggers. I really like them all.
