| Publisher Description: Learn how you can overcome issues of abuse, addiction, anxiety, phobias and depression by following this woman who started life with promise and excellence, then impacted by her circumstances and choices cycled into a desperate life only to find the resources and inner strength to RESTORE her life back to excellence, far beyond anything she imagined as a little girl. In this stunning memoir, Jacqueline Stuckey shares that regardless of a life dominated by parental and partner mental and physical abuse, teen pregnancies, addiction, phobias and anxiety, she came back from the brink of desperation, renewed her own strength and reclaimed a positive productive life beyond her wildest dreams. She restored her life. "Her story is an inspiration for anyone who has been knocked down and wonders if it's even worth getting up again. Few people have been knocked down as hard and as often as Jackie was from the time she was a little girl and a promising athlete. If you want a little inspiration, you need to read this book." David R. Nelson, Chair, Communication Department, University of Colorado, Colorado Springs A graphic insight to the devastating effect of growing up under the so - called care of alcoholics, Jackie doesn't just pull the curtain back, she rips it completely off the rail exposing the effects of abuse and neglect. Her courage and resourcefulness, even when she doubted herself and those around her, demonstrates the power of faith in oneself and in a higher power. "Oftentimes when we are faced with problems such as physical and mental abuse, incarceration, mental, physical ailments, emotional illnesses or death, we feel that those obstacles are insurmountable and we just cannot continue. Well, allow me to share with you that that's exactly when we should just keep pushing forward The question that begs to be answered at that point is: Will it be easy? The answer is a resounding NO - but it IS DOABLE It just takes the power of MUCH prayer, perseverance, determination and a great deal of RESILIENCE " -Jacqueline Stuckey |
