All moms and dads-to-be share one fervent, even "nonnegotiable" desire; that their baby will be born healthy. This wish would not at all come true for the parents of Brittany Wilson. She would begin fighting for her health immediately and still would be doing battle a quarter century later. Seizures. Structural misalignments. ADHD. Dysgraphia. Growth disorder. Spinal-fusion-necessitating scoliosis. Autism (pervasive developmental disorder). Depression. And yet syndromes aren't the story. This book is the stirring, forthright account of a girl - and then woman - who through her faith in God, along with imagination, creativity, humor, and courageous perseverance has learned not merely to survive but truly thrive with significant disabilities. Author, Debbie Wilson, transparently demonstrates weathering crises or calamities and emerging with soul and body intact. Finding peace and joy in God when dreams seem dashed and hopes repeatedly threatened. Learning what faith in God, a dogged spirit, a listening heart, and an open mind can accomplish.
