June 22, 2026: 'Dizzy' is about an 18-year struggle with invisible illness

from Colorado Matters · host Colorado Public Radio

In bear encounters and shipwrecks, Rachel Weaver was steady on her feet. But after leaving Alaska for Colorado, something knocked her off of them-- a medical mystery that dragged on for nearly two decades. Weaver's new memoir "Dizzy" is for anyone whose medical claim has been denied or who has waited an hour for the doctor... then not felt heard. The Louisville, Colorado author joined us at this year's LitFest from Lighthouse Writers Workshop for our reading series “Turn The Page.”
