Publisher's Synopsis
Disturbed, But Not Destroyed tells Linda's story in vivid and sometimes heart-breaking detail. From abuse, neglect, alcoholism, drug abuse, incarceration, pain, and loss, she shares the parts of her life others chose to hide. As a child, she felt unwanted and neglected, and even unsafe with her own parents. However, she was graced with loving, godly grandparents who not only provided her a loving home, but a foundation that would get shaken, but it would never be destroyed. The pain she endured could have destroyed her-and it almost did-but Linda chose to transform her pain into purpose and help others who may have felt like life was stacked up against them. Disturbed, But Not Destroyed was written to inspire you with hope. With depression and suicide rates on the rise-especially for our youth-it is imperative that you do not give up. This book highlights a lot of painful and sensitive memories, but giving up was not the answer for Linda, and it is not the answer for you. Your life may have been or may currently be disturbed but take courage; it is not destroyed. There is hope and purpose for your life.
