Very Uplifting

Renee Bondi's story of her daily stuggles is very uplifting. I am in a wheelchair full time. I have been since birth. I can not imagin how hard it must be on a person to go from being able to do anything they desire to having to depend on people 24/7 literly overnight. Even though I am paralized from the waist down, I could identify with Renee on some level. I laughed and cried through the whole book. I also have met Renee when she came to speak at my church in '96. She is as neat of a lady as she seems. I was thrilled to see my town mentioned in her book. I recomend this book to anybody

Touching

I could not put this book down. It is such an inspiratinal story about someone whose life was just devestated by a terrible accident and how she overcame such physical problems to live a productive life. I cried and laughed through the whole book. It really touches your life and soul in how God has such a plan for us.

From Montana

A salesperson at Cornerstone Bookstore in Helena recommended this book for a friend of mine whose child was injusred last year. I read it first. This is more than a book about a marvelous woman overcoming tragedy through her faith. It is so personal in all details, and her family support is wonderful and enviable for all, in all her relationships. Renee is Catholic, but denominationalism has nothing to do with it- Jesus Christ shines through in ALL of her story- His faithfulness to her, and her faithfulness to Him. Another current, up-to-date miracle story! Great reading, much to ponder.

A "Must Read" Book

This is a wonderful saga of love and faith overcoming seemingly insurmountable problems. The reader experiences the joys and sorrows of this amazing woman's story as Renee shares the details of how her life changed forever in one brief moment. Her remarkable accomplishments of how she turned adversity into a career that touches the lives of thousands of people will serve as an inspiration to everyone who reads this book. This is something I have enjoyed reading and have also given as a gift to others.
