See You in September by Joanne Teague

When Joanne Teague was diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos - a rare and still incurable, life-threatening condition - she decided to take her family and see the world. See You in September is the hilarious and uplifting account of this family's journey - from Paris, through Italy, Greece and the islands and back again. From the interviews with the children's eccentric headteacher, to the vagaries of negotiating the Paris Metro with a toddler, the joys of navigating through Italian cities and the challenge of purchasing food for a family on a remote Greek island using only sign language, the book deals with every family's holiday dreams - and nightmares - with a wonderfully light touch.
