This book is inspired by the true story of my life and journey from homelessness and beyond. It´s an inspiring story of courage, tragedy, adventure, perseverance, determination, resilience, faith, and redemption.

This was my defining moment and the turning point of my life. I began to see light at the end of the tunnel! I began to seek treatment for my depression and PTSD. I attented (NA)meetings.
