About the Book

If you are looking for inspiration, or if you are experiencing loneliness, emptiness, loss, or depression in your life, this is the book for you. It quickly raises the curtain on a typical family who has experienced a head on collision with unbelievable trauma and devastation. Then it leads you through the process of how they healed. It clearly shows how much faith and a foundation of strong family values matter and how on the other side of tragedy, a "true calling" was recognized. Real empathy and compassion can only be learned through life's experiences and healing begins when you can look outside of yourself and begin using your new knowledge to help others. One special friend shared with me that this book has changed her life from looking inward to looking outward in service to others.


About the Author

Anne Marie Ryan worked in the Human Resource Development field at a major Big 10 University for many years and worked with at-risk youth for a decade. She is currently the Business Manager of a therapeutic riding facility in Northern Michigan and is still providing programming for at-risk youth. Anne is a midwestern second generation farm owner, a mother and a grandmother. She was raised with strong family values, hard work, and faith. She and her family were plagued with one tragic event after another. The prevailing question was, "How can you survive something like this?" Never intending to be an author, she was asked to write about these events and their outcome. This is that story.
