About The Author
Chuck Knueve
I am a retired pharmacist and paramedic with a unique dual perspective as a healthcare professional and the patient’s father in my novel. With a doctorate in pharmacy, I bring medical knowledge and experience to my writing. My professional and personal journeys have shaped me into a devoted advocate for those facing chronic health challenges.
Through my writing, I aim to inspire and offer hope to others by sharing my insights and experiences. I welcome you to my debut novel, “Surviving Cushing’s Disease: A Young Man’s Journey.” I live a simple life in the heart of the Midwest, where I have been married for 47 years. I am the proud father of three and the grandfather of five.
