A brave and moving book about endometriosis, the elusive disease one in every ten women suffers from.

When death came to her door and just stood there waiting, Avivit Zahavi Binshtok realized she had to move fast and publish the manuscripts she had written and the important information she had gathered about the elusive and difficult to decipher disease – endometriosis.
