An
inspirational story!
Author Christy
Beam tells the inspiring story of her daughter, Annabel, who suffered from a
chronic , debilitating disease and is now cured. What tugs on the reader’s
heartstrings isn’t the fact modern medicine has Annabel – faith has.
Annabel is 9.
She suffers from pseudo-obstruction motility disorder, making it near
impossible to live a normal life. The Beams have adjusted, doing their best to
give Annabel the best quality of life she can have. One thing never wavers –
their faith.
When a freak
accident puts Annabel in danger of severe spinal injuries, the adults in her
life wonder how much can a little girl deal with before her spirit begins to
lose hope? Will “one more thing” be too much for Annabel and her family to
endure?
Beam’s writing
styles engages the reader. She’s honest and sincere and a lot of readers can
sympathize with the emotional struggles of being a mother to a child with
a disability/disorder. The narration jumps often between events which can be
confusing to the reader. Overall, “Miracles From Heaven” is an inspirational
story that will resonate with readers.
