The Take-Charge Patient Puts the Expertise of 200 Medical Professionals in Your Hands.

Frustrated or confused about how to get good medical care? In her newest book, The Take-Charge Patient: How You Can Get The Best Medical Care, (winner of 18 book awards) author and patient advocate, Martine Ehrenclou, empowers patients to become proactive, well informed participants in their own care. With advice and personal stories from over 200 doctors, nurses, pharmacists, health psychologists, patients and more, The Take-Charge Patient reveals insider information on how to cut through the red tape and navigate today's complex health care system with confidence.

Ehrenclou empowers readers with vital information on how to find the right doctor, how to communicate effectively with doctors, how to prepare for medical appointments, prevent medical errors and medication mistakes, obtain discounted medication, manage your health insurance, and much more. The Take-Charge Patient will forever change how you act as a patient and thereby vastly improve the quality of the medical care you receive.

Six months into her research for The Take-Charge Patient, Martine Ehrenclou developed debilitating, chronic pain and used every strategy in her new book. She went from author and advocate for others to an advocate for herself and became a take-charge patient. After eleven doctors failed to diagnose her correctly, Martine found her own diagnosis and the correct surgeon to treat her. She is now pain free.

According to Ehrenclou, your health care is a team sport. The Take-Charge Patient shows you how to take charge of what you can and become an effective player. Martine Ehrenclou has also written the 16 award-winning Critical Conditions: The Essential Hospital. Guide to Get Your Loved One Out Alive (Lemon Grove Press). Ehrenclou writes monthly articles for several health websites, national magazines, and is interviewed regularly on national TV and radio such as ABC News, ABC World News, Woman's Day, Family Circle, Los Angeles Times Magazine, Publishers Weekly, and many more. She frequently lectures on how to be an advocate for yourself and your loved ones at universities, hospitals and various organizations.

Soft, even airdried.
Color: Butterscotch, Size: King/Cal King, Color: Butterscotch, Size: King/Cal King
I needed a larger, better match in color to protect my sofa from our pets. It is very soft even after hanging to dry. It dries very quickly. It did not shed in the wash. If you plan to machine dry keep in mind the fact that no or low heat is necessary. The color worked out for my needs. I recommend it.

Soft, velvety and very pretty.
Happy with this blanket. A bit thin, but I use it for layering so it is perfect for that. The color is a deep, rich purple. Which can be hard to find. Does not shed at all and feels very comfortable against the skin.

Fuzzies
I've waited to write this review to see if the fuzzies would go away. I've washed these blankets 4 times, twice when I first got them. The shedding was really bad on the first two washes, and each time I launder them, I hope they're gone, but no, I have to spend time picking them off, and I continue to do this, because the blankets came at a great price, they're a perfect weight, soft and cozy. Just beware if this would irritate you.
