Fallen Angel Rising

This book was written to inspire hope and to begin healing for those experiencing adversity or who have wounds to heal. I hope that my words help you gain perspective on the past and avoid the mistakes I've made as you go forward on your journey. I now view every single experience as positive because adversity brought me here--to this place where I can help you heal your life. This book is dedicated to:

- Rape victims--When they tell you it wasn't your fault, it is true No matter what choices you made, the instant the word "no" crossed your lips, all should have stopped. Whatever happened after that was not your fault. - Those suffering from depression and/or PTSD--As a society, we need to do more to remove the stigma of psychological illness so that more people will seek the help they need, before the situation becomes desperate. - All fibromyalgia patients--We must continue to advocate for a cure and not settle for lifelong symptom management. When we put our voices together, there is nothing we cannot accomplish. - Those who want a change in their life--Whether it's a divorce, an illness, or any other issue that has you feeling "less than," you can change your circumstances. - Anyone who has had, or is having, thoughts of suicide--Know that suicide not the answer. I am an example of that. If I'd not seen that "dark place" and lived to talk about it, I wouldn't be writing this for you today. I would never have known life could be this incredible.
