In this moving biography, hope is transported in the single suitcase of Jeanne McCue, an American nurse from the Midwest who launched a one-woman humanitarian effort after suffering her own personal tragedy and being impacted by devastation of a war half a world away. With resources and donations from friends, co-workers, neighbors, and her local church, McCue undertook forty missions to the war-torn region. Each time, she brought with her much-needed medical supplies, provisions for the poor and elderly, the infirm, the orphaned, and the thousands of other victims of the horrible Balkan conflict. With its message, this uplifting and inspiring story shows that anyone-regardless of age, resources, or station in life-can have a tremendous impact in the world when motivated by a passion and desire to spread love and hope to those who have lost everything. Written in collaboration with award-winning journalist Peg Masterson Edquist, McCue's story reveals how an intrepid and determined 55-year-old nurse endured shelling, sniper fire, and landmines to serve those ravaged by the military conflict in Bosnia-Herzegovina, a new state of the former Yugoslavia.
