O knihe

One major health or life crisis can be difficult for anyone to recover from; add a series of crises, and it can try one's faith and motivation. RESILIENCE chronicles the amazing true story of Annie Nelson, who has encountered a lifetime of medical and life challenges that culminated in undergoing more than ten hours of surgery to successfully remove a rare brain tumor. The after-effects of the tumor surgery; a subsequent second brain tumor; a prior compression fracture to her back resulting from being attacked in-flight while working as a flight attendant; the traumatic loss of her beloved father to cancer; and other ongoing and significant life trauma, all provided Annie with an insight and understanding of what it is like to live with physical limitations and post traumatic stress. Never one to complain, Annie proactively embraced her life circumstances, finding her purpose in serving in the military who suffer from PTSD and other service-related medical issues. She created a non-profit organization, the American Soldier Network, which supports veterans and their families. With humor, humility and transparency, Annie provides the reader with five "Pillars of Resilience"-lessons she learned on her journey back from one crisis after another, that anyone can apply to live their life with more faith, passion and purpose.
