Susan Abod Documentaries

Diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome and Multiple Chemical Sensitivities in 1986.

After a failed attempt to keep up with a graduate school counseling program due to her health, Susan was inspired to write and produce a one-hour long documentary "Funny You Don't Look Sick: Autobiography of an Illness" about her own debilitating condition. Produced by volunteers, the project took three years to complete. Screened at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston in November 1995, the video has since been distributed to thousands of individuals, schools and libraries throughout the country. The sequel "Homesick" is due for release at the end of the year.
