What an amazing true story of hope and overcoming the seemingly impossible!!!

Heroes are not just fictional! This book provides encouragement that we all can overcome hard things. I was shocked to learn about such powerful inner struggles that can be hidden so well. It helps me understand other people in my life and makes me feel empowered to make a difference. I highly recommend this book to anyone, especially those who are struggling with depression and anxiety (whether themselves or a from loved one).
