From the back cover"Keep going'" "push through'" and "ignore the pain" was my motto, but life was about to run headfirst into that philosophy. When I graduated high school, I had the girl and the grades and was voted most likely to succeed. During college, though, I only succeeded in facing battles back to back. Attempted suicide, drug addiction, and multiple hospital visits were only a portion of my journey. Death was only a few steps away, yet I continued to sprint toward it. I struggled with an addiction to Percocet as I tried to drown out depression. My familiarity with hospitals led me to increased anxiety, and I began to question how long I had to live-my medical debt accumulated to $1.2 million. I blamed myself for it all, and the guilt forced me to pull away and suffer in silence. Starting at the age of 20, my life was on the line constantly, but I kept up habits that exacerbated my pain. As a result, I would have three brain surgeries and a stroke that would change my life and perspective forever. To discover my true purpose, I needed to let go of the guilt trapping me in this mindset. If I couldn't let go of the habits that led to this state, the third time will no longer be the charm.
