Monya takes us on a journey from her abusive childhood through her marriage and motherhood and ended with surviving cancer. You see her grow from a timid, insecure child and young mother into an inspirational survivor. This book is brutally honest and emotional. I met Monya a few years ago right after one of her many surgeries. I have found her to be one of the happiest and most giving woman I have ever met. After learning what she had been through she inspires me even more. Thank you for sharing your heart and soul. She inspires so many people to keep going through their own personal battles each and everyday.
