Subject: From a bullied deaf kid, to a lip-reader for the FBI, to the inspiration for a TV series, Sue Thomas' journey has had many high and lows. Just when things seemed to even out, there is a new setback ... Multiple Sclerosis. What a strange word! It took Sue a lifetime to learn to speak; now she has a condition she can't even pronounce! She writes, "When I look back on that day when I first walked through the doors of the Neurology Center and saw all the people who had been affected by MS, I simply wanted to run away and never return". The most difficult challenge was the damage to her precious eyes. Her lip-reading skills dramatically affected, Thomas begins slipping into a dark and silent world. As the isolation becomes unbearable Sue has a decision to make. Will she run from it and fight against it, as she fought her silence for the first 30 years, or embrace it and learn from it? Each day holds new dimensions as Sue learns that the joy of triumph comes through knowing the agony of defeat. --Subject: "A true story of how joy and strength can be found in the most unpredictable places"--Back cover.
