She was only 47. Around her, life went on - family graduations, weddings, funerals... She tried her best to keep up with social traffic, and with her husband's help, she looked presentable to the public. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e She didn't know it then, but her pain was giving birth. The writer in her, being squeezed and pushed, was slowly coming through the birth canal of authorhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This debut collection consists of (She has to count twice because she can't believe how many.) 61 thoughts and feelings that she memorized on her nature-trail prayer walks, and later dictated into an old cassette recorder. (She couldn't hold a pencil.) This work spans a 13-year period of the sufferer's life who searched for a cure, visited many doctors, agonized through various modalities of physical therapy, and eventually agreed to try surgery with a meager 13% chance of recovery. Post-surgery, she is fortunate. Though she still has challenges, she thanks God for resurrecting her dead arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Born from the hellish pain of Brachial Plexopathy paralysis, the poems \u0026amp; artwork will make you tear up and chuckle. The author cries. She stomps her feet. Then she puts one foot in front of the other. And moves forward.
