After a nomadic childhood as the daughter of a military veteran who treats his undiagnosed PTSD with alcohol, Kim survives the trauma of sexual assault, spousal abuse, addiction, and co-dependency to become a nurse and a runner. After re-marrying, she and her husband live happily with their three kids until an elderly driver mistakes the gas for the brake and slams Kim through the wall of an outdoor café where she’s waiting for her order. In horror, Kim’s fifteen-year-old son and twelve-year-old daughter witness the crash that changes their lives forever.

With shattered legs, Kim believes she is dying in the ambulance until a heavenly Angel appears and whispers unintelligible words over her body, dissolving all the pain and fear. Over many years, Kim endures dozens of painful surgeries. Then she is diagnosed with breast cancer and must undergo dozens more. Kim’s remarkable story will inspire anyone seeking to face seemingly impossible challenges with grace and humor.
