40 Gifts of Hope: Encouragement in times of sickness and suffering, Paperback

THIS BOOK IS A GIFT FOR THOSE TIMES OF SICKNESS AND SUFFERING!

A tool to give you HOPE and ENCOURAGEMENT!

"The unpredictable path of life can bring us face to face with great challenges and suffering. How do we handle these challenges and the suffering that can be so unpredictable? Can we find meaning in suffering? What choices do we have in the turmoil of great challenges? What can we learn from people who have faced great suffering? Let's find out and answer these questions by taking a heart-felt journey of love, hope and inspiration in Paula Umana's new book "40 Gifts of Hope."

In this inspiring journey, Paula shares her story of survival as a quadriplegic victim. Her story is interspersed throughout the book with other inspiring stories, including those experiencing cancer, multiple sclerosis, neurological disease, stroke, inflammatory disease, addiction, sexual abuse and autoimmune disease.

Each person shares their journey from victim to victor and their thoughts on how you can do the same. Paula is a warm, caring, authentic woman, who delights in sharing her story and thus bringing comfort to those who are in the "eye of the storm".

"Wow! Paula, our author, has been given a beautiful spiritual vision. As a Catholic priest, totally blind for 90% of my life, Iam nourished by the deep stories in these pages, and intend to draw upon them in many upcoming missions and retreats.

40 Gifts of Hope reminds us of God‛s mysterious plan and the beauty discovered by the people who trust in Him despite all odds. If anyone needs hope in the face of hardship, Paula‛s story along with the many others shared in this book will remind us of God‛s piercing goodness and our vocation to trust in Him, permitting God to reveal deeper beauty and meaning in the midst of shadows."

Rev. Michael Joly

"We all need stories like Paula's to remind us of a greater hope. Through these short stories and lessons, we have a guide map to suffer strong."

Katherine Wolf, Hope Heals

"These stories are truly gifts on my 'down' days. Taking only a few minutes to read but inspiring all day long. The brief backgrounds remind me there are many types of suffering, some harder than my own. My favorite part is the practical advice from others like me that allows me to focus on a positive thing to help me that day."
