Book Review: Brain on Fire by Susannah Cahalan

New York Post reporter Susannah Cahalan suffered psychosis and hallucination and was hospitalized by a mystery disease for several weeks until Dr. Souhel Najjar of New York University Langone Medical Center diagnosed her of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis, an autoimmune disease caused by antibody B-cell attack neurons in brain.

Susannah is lucky to have two parents who don't give up on her and keep pushing for answer and seeking medical treatment for their daughter.
