Photocopy of a The Guardian article written in the first person by Lindsay Cooper.
The article includes a photograph of Cooper and describes her experiences living with multiple sclerosis ten years after diagnosis. She recounts a three-week stay at the National Neurological Hospital, where she felt reduced to being no more than her disease and writes that her questions to doctors were dismissed or redirected. The article also notes increased difficulty walking associated with the stress of returning to the hospital after weekends at home. Her album 'Pia Mater' is also referenced.
