Inhaltsangabe:

Imprisoned in her own body by a paralyzing stroke at age twenty, Nika Maples depended upon spiritual strength in order to surmount the greatest challenge of her young life: standing on her own two feet again. Not only did she stand, obliterating doctors initial prognoses, she walked ... directly into the passionate profession of a public high school teacher. Thirteen years after the medical trauma she was not expected to survive, Nika stood inside the glimmering granite capitol building in Austin, honored to receive state House and Senate resolutions as 2007 Texas Secondary Teacher of the Year. Let your heart rise along with the inspirational account of a single mother's faith, her dying daughter's hope, and God's triumphant love.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Nika Maples survived a massive brainstem stroke that left her quadriplegic at age twenty. After learning to walk and talk again, she became a public school teacher, winning 2007 Texas Secondary Teacher of the Year. She holds an MA in English education from Columbia University. When she is not traveling to speak, she lives, writes, and laughs as much as possible in Fort Worth, Texas.
