"Sue Vogan is a true patriot…Sue's affection and services for our military must be recognized, and her book is a must-read." - Sunny Park, winner of USO Patriot Award; founder, Good Neighboring Foundation www.SunnyPark.com
“NCO, No Compassion Observed” is an indictment not only of how the US military treats dedicated and loyal members of the armed forces and their families, particularly during a time of medical crisis, but it is also a call to arms for the rest of the country which benefits from their sacrifices. Sue Vogan’s self-deprecating account of her struggle with Lyme disease and her 20-year veteran husband Tim’s attempts at getting them both help within the system to which he dedicated his life, is all the sadder because it is so true of thousands today – both within and outside the confines of the military. This is a book to which the American public should pay attention. - Denise Lang, “Coping With Lyme Disease” “NCO, No Compassion Observed” is an indictment not only of how the US military treats dedicated and loyal members of the armed forces and their families, particularly during a time of medical crisis, but it is also a call to arms for the rest of the country which benefits from their sacrifices.

"Knowledge is power; this book is properly researched and annotated. It’s well written and easy to read. For anyone who has, thinks they might have or knows somebody that has Lyme Disease. NCO is a treasure house of knowledge on the symptoms, effects, diagnosis and possible treatments of this debilitating disease. Ms Vogan has traveled up, down and across many roads in search of the facts about and a cure for her condition. This journey would not have been necessary if the medical establishment was better educated but they aren’t, so you need to be if you expect to get treatment. The stories in the book can save you from turning down many dead end paths on your journey to better health.Know your enemy. Ms Vogan fought many years to be correctly diagnosed and to get treatment. Struggling against the blockhead mindset of both the military and the civilian medical establishment that delays and denies treatment of Lyme. Like most chronic medical conditions the existence of Lyme is ignored. Chronic diseases cost your HMO more to treat than you pay in premiums. It is more profitable to deny that you are sick or say “it’s all in your head” and prescribe some cheap drugs until you shut up and stop bothering them. Learning from her battles you will know what to expect when you visit the doctor and what to do when you get that first letter telling you that there’s nothing wrong with you.In short, if you want to know about Lyme, buy the book and read it." - Tom Travis
