“Life has its tragic moments of defeat, setbacks, and fracturing for everyone.

Open these pages and experience the joy of ultimate victory.” —Dr. Dennis E. Hensley, Author Jesus in All Four Seasons

This story involves the very essence of the human spirit, family, and community. To know Kelly and her journey of miracles is to know that with God all things are possible.” —Most Reverend Charles C. Thompson Bishop of Evansville

My Review:
This was a book that I did not want to put down. I have been in a car wreck and actually was not supposed to live but here I am alive and well. Kelly’s story was full of pain, hope, and inspiration. She went through a lot and I actually cried reading this story. Even being injured Kelly kept on going and did not give up like she could have. She did no let it define who she is. I really loved this story because I like all of the emotions in it. It took me from laughter to tears and that means it was a well written memoir. Loved it!
Kelly Schaefer
Kelly is a true heroine, finding God as she battles with a life as a quadriplegic. Overcoming obstacles every day, she’s a speaker, teacher, and Skittles lover. Michelle, Kelly’s aunt, is an award-winning and bestselling author who penned Kelly’s memoir to bring others hope. She writes stories that move her, and this one is close to her heart.
Michelle is a fulltime employee of God’s kingdom, writing and encouraging writers every day. She’s often a sucker for emotional stories, her sensitive side fueling the passion for her character’s plights, often giving her the ability to show readers the “other” side of the story.

She grew up in the burbs of Detroit with five brothers. No sisters. Each time her mom brought the boy bundle home from the hospital Michelle cried, certain her mom liked boys better than girls. But when her brothers pitched in with the cooking, cleaning, and babysitting—without drama, Michelle discovered having brothers wasn’t so bad. They even taught her how to take direct criticism without flinching, which comes in handy with book reviews.

Michelle is living her dream—writing every day and thanking God for the stories He puts in her path. When Michelle isn’t writing she’s winning ugly on the tennis court. She’s known as “Queen of the Rim Shots.” No joke. It’s ugly.
