The author has had many life experiences; more than most people would ever have - or want - in a lifetime. She is unique in that she is willing to tell readers about many horrific experiences that she has endured. In retrospect, God has had His hand on her during these struggles. Now, for such a time as this, He's given her the courage to reveal her life's events to help those who have been suffering in silence and darkness and need to enter into the light.
