"The Morpher" (eBook, ePUB)

A Spiritual and Surrendering Journey of a Woman Living to Die with Sickle Cell Disease

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book is about one womans spiritual and emotional awakening while living to die with SCA, sickle cell anemia disease. How she came to call her beloved disease the Morpher or Morph for short was because it caused such a metamorphosis in her body, mind, and entire overall state. This is about her surrendering journey that forced her, as she stated, to be honest with myself about what was really going on with me, within me, and what my role had been, good or bad, telling the truth about living to die with sickle cell anemia disease my entire life, with no holds barred and no bull crap. A testament of my faith and trust in Jesus Christ, the main factor that grounded me and made me triumphant through this whole losing battle, and about my firm and tireless belief in Gods love that exchanges suffering (ashes) for beauty and Gods good plan and purpose for everyone that suffers. With God, nothing happens by chance or accident.

Autorenporträt

Sydatu (Sydney) Tennema Holder was born in Monrovia, Liberia, on October 21, 1974. She was diagnosed with chronic sickle cell anemia disease shortly after her birth. In 1980, Syd, as she was affectionately called, relocated from Liberia to the United States with her mother, where she resided until her death on May 31, 2014. Syd obtained her BBA degree in management from Howard University in Washington, DC, USA, in 1999. In 2006, Syd, always an avid writer (journals, poetry, and music), embarked on her spiritual journey to write the manuscript for The Morpher, a tell-all book of her physical, emotional, and mentally painful experiences, living to die with sickle cell anemia disease, to encourage others going through similar challenges. Syd, a mild-mannered, soft-spoken, no-nonsense, and determined woman, dedicated her life to her family and her creative pursuits. She was an outstanding woman of many talents, including painting, drawing, poetry, writing musical lyrics, and other creative endeavors. Truly a spiritual soul, Syd often said, "I know I will die young, therefore I have to pack in as much living as I can in the time I have left." Her constant infectious, radiant smiles were indicative of her fearless faith in Jesus Christ and her caring heart for all. "The Morpher" is the name she called the severely painful sickle cell crisis that she endured for thirty-nine years, her entire life, through the love and grace of Jesus Christ, the source of her strength.
