Nin Mok, a debut Australian author, is on a mission to make invisible disability visible. Her journey began when she unexpectedly lost her hearing and balance. With honesty and humour, she shares her abrupt transition from working as a Project Management executive at a large international organisation to being housebound, navigating loss, grief, and medical trauma.
Suddenly Silent and Still delivers a powerful community message, advocating for inclusivity and compassion for those with invisible disabilities or illnesses. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), 3.96 million Australians are currently living with an invisible disability, making Suddenly Silent and Still a must-read for everyone—whether you are living with an invisible disability or know someone who is.
One reader said it best:
"After reading this book, you will think twice about judging the person who moves too slowly in front of you or expressing your impatience towards one who appears not to hear you."
Suddenly Silent and Still also offers invaluable insights on how to navigate loss, grief, and disability. Nin's story is a beacon of hope and inspiration, helping readers through their grief gauntlet, and emerging on the other side transformed and victorious.
