When a two hundred pound glass partition fell on Donna Fado Ivery's head resulting in brain injury, disability, and chronic pain, she could no longer count on walking, speaking, thinking, or caring for her infant and preschool children and husband. In her eighth year as pastor, her ministry, too, seemed terminally compromised.
With words awash, she painted her prayers and discovered in the images her path toward healing.
This inspirational memoir shares her struggle through medical, social, and church prejudice, and her support through the loving bond of family, community, and spirit. It was only through faith, prayer, and a new understanding of the miraculous ways that the Holy Spirit can work in our lives that she was able to eventually rise, function, realize and share a newly refreshed and ever-unfolding relationship with God. Sleep, Pray, Heal: A Path to Wholeness and Well-Being charts the path through hardship and despair and offers a map--through scripture, theology, poetry, painting, and storytelling-- to faith, healing, recovery, and well-being.
Book two of this Healing Memoir series, Sleep, Pray, Fly: Spirit Journey to Healing is forthcoming. For more information, see the author's website, www.DonnaFadoIvery.com, or www.AdventuresInHealing.com.
