“For twenty-five years, Nancy Alexander battled a mysterious illness without a diagnosis. Despite spells of total debilitation and hospitalizations with no answers, she managed to fight through and raise two sons and create a successful business. Like many marriages where chronic illnesses is at the forefront, Nancy’s suffered.
This is her story of fighting the medical system to receive a diagnosis and to not only save her marriage to Steve but restore it to a place of joy. Years of rumors from doctors and friends, the ravages on her body from disease, and the rescue in the form of a doctor and nutritionist all culminated into a place of wellness that Nancy now shares with her readers.
Though she didn’t always know it during her journey, God’s hand guided and protected her and Steve. Nancy’s story will uplift and encourage those with chronic illness that answers are worth fighting for, and God’s strength is sufficient on even the worse days.”
Hallie Sue Wells: “Nancy, I loved this book! I started out thinking it was going to be a book about Fibromyalgia but was so wrong. It is really a great love story, a mystery, a story of survival and most of all God’s grace and strength given to one of his children. I felt so many emotions while engrossed in every page, from frustration, fear and hopelessness to anger and bitterness over things that should not have been then to relief, love and joy as the aftermath of such a devastating, debilitating disease finally started getting answers and healing. While reading I wondered how I would have handled or reacted to each situation and the devastating pain of body and mind. I am so glad that you survived and are now making such a difference in so many lives.”
Jim Cockrum: “I love to surround myself with people who challenge me. Those rare souls who endure and persist and eventually find a way to overcome seemingly impossible odds with determination and focus as they ignite something unique and special inside us. Prepare to add Nancy to your list of champions. Her story is likely to destroy your excuses and procrastinations and inspire you to serve, build and grow starting now. From my perspective this book is not "Nancy and Steve's story of tragedy and triumph". It's far more. To me it's a finely tuned weapon of spiritual warfare that our father has been sharpening for quite some time now - and it's about to do some serious damage in the spiritual realm.”
Sue Mellette: “Nancy, I just finished reading your absolutely amazing story. I felt I was feeling your pain, your bewilderment, your desperate need to find help. But your story is much more than fighting Fibromyalgia and learning how to live with it. It is a love story about finding the love that a husband and wife should have for each other. Thank you for sharing your most inner secrets and your journey. I know others will find your story absolutely breathtaking. It even, in my opinion, is a great story that could be brought to life on the big screen. It was so vivid and descriptive that I could actually see your struggles. An absolutely powerful story about a disease and your diligence in finding exactly what was wrong with you. You truly are special!”
Rev. Randy Blank: “Nancy, in your darkest hours I could see the hand of God keeping you, protecting you, and loving you...especially when you felt that you were so unlovable. The Lord has been in your life from the earliest moments when you were easily discouraged, and wanted to give up. I praise God for His love and mercy and protection in your life. I am so thankful that your story does not end in despair, darkness, or the tragedy that could have been.
