Most people haven't heard of Betty White's Miracle at Carville. It's the autobiography of a Southern debutante in Louisiana who contracted Hansen's disease. She is sent to a leper colony and spends the next 20 years there. Copies of the book are quite expensive on Amazon but I was able to obtain it as an interlibrary loan. The Internet Archive also has it available for lending. https://archive.org/details/miracleatcarvill0000mart
