TI - An illness of one’s own: Memoir as art form and research as witness
AB - 
	The author reviews his own experiences of writing an illness memoir, asking what makes such storytelling possible. How telling stories about suffering can precipitate healing is then considered. Finally, the argument pivots to health care research, asking what sort of research would be

	consistent with the ideas about illness that have been expressed.
