Opis

On his 51st birthday, Gordon Viggiano suffered a massive stroke, dramatically changing his and his family's lives. While he is lost in the fog of his stroke, his wife, Jill, is faced with the terrible reality of caring for her disabled husband, raising their two children, and seemingly inevitable financial ruin. The strength of their faith, marriage and family are tested. In Painful Blessing, Jill tells the story of devastating loss, hope that comes from the faith that sustains her, finding joy in their new life, and the decision to embrace recovery as both a team sport and a lifetime endeavor.
