| Publisher Description: Chronic Blessings is an inspiring, faith-driven account full of powerful lessons... -- FOREWORD CLARION REVIEWS Award winning finalist in Women's Health of Best Book Awards DO YOU WANT TO ENJOY THE LIFE YOU ARE LIVING, EVEN AS YOU FACE SIGNIFICANT LIFE CHALLENGES? Are you grieving the loss of the life you planned? Is your body or mind failing you? Can you ever find joy, peace, or fulfillment in these challenging situations? The answer is a resounding YES. Cristy Maddox searched for answers that were not coming; answers for a diagnosis to explain her symptoms. For nearly ten years, Cristy and her husband Greg researched an illness they had never heard of, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome or POTS. An illness affecting over 2 million Americans and 1 in every 100 teenagers! POTS, the invisible intruder, not only places Cristy at risk but her children as well. Feeling isolated and misunderstood, Cristy grieves the loss of the life she once knew. But now, Cristy brings her findings and insights to you in this compelling, honest, and often too-real story, providing answers to the many perplexing questions surrounding chronic illness. She takes you on a journey of learning the purpose of hardship, a better way to view pain and how to allow God to recycle it for good. Are you ready to discover that your greatest joys in life may be hidden in your deepest heartache? |
Contributor Bio(s): Maddox, Cristy: - Cristy Maddox is a physical therapist and homeschooling mother of three. She and her BFF, Greg have been married for 20 years. She loves Jesus and has a passion for helping others find the hidden gems that He has waiting for them in their own broken dreams. Cristy was busy living her faith--doing things for God as fast as she could. So fast, in fact, that she rarely had time to spend with God. Nothing could slow her down, until chronic illness struck. In the midst of illness, she was forced to slow down and learned the pure joy that comes from just being with God in the stillness. |
