Acerca de esta escucha
Chronic pain, illness, and disability take so much away. Sometimes it seems as though they take everything we have ever loved and held dear.
Our physical abilities and our jobs. Our current passions and future dreams. Our finances and our friends. Our sense of community and our ability to engage the world in ways we could before.
Chronic pain takes away our sense of self and who we always thought ourselves to be. How in the world are we supposed to deal with this fact?
In this book, I hope to teach you how to mourn your losses - everything that pain, illness, and disability has taken away. I hope to teach you what to do when life is empty and filled with grief. I hope to point you to the god who gives us Himself when nothing else in life makes sense.

Alan Gordon, a psychotherapist and the founder of the Pain Psychology Center in Los Angeles, was in grad school when he started experiencing chronic pain and it completely derailed his life. He saw multiple doctors and received many diagnoses, but none of the medical treatments helped. Frustrated with conventional pain management, he developed Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), a mind-body protocol that eliminated his own chronic pain and has transformed the lives of thousands of his patients.

In 2001, Toni Bernhard got sick and, to her and her partner’s bewilderment, stayed that way. As they faced the confusion, frustration, and despair of a life with sudden limitations - a life that was vastly different from the one they’d thought they’d have together - Toni had to learn how to be sick. In spite of her many physical and energetic restrictions (and sometimes, because of them), Toni learned how to live a life of equanimity, compassion, and joy.

This Boy and His Mother: Healing from Trauma as a Gay Latter-day Saint chronicles Preston Jenkins' journey back to faith and activity in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Speaking with authenticity, Preston offers gospel insights gleaned from his experiences involving same-sex attraction, sexual and emotional abuse, an early return from an LDS mission, mental illness, and the eventual completion of a mission. Hope, faith, and never-failing charity are strikingly displayed. So, too, is the sufficient grace of Jesus Christ to holistically heal all wounds.

“I want to believe, I want to have hope, but....” Pastor and author Craig Groeschel hears these words often and has asked them himself. We want to know God, feel his presence, and trust that he hears our prayers, but in the midst of great pain, we may wonder if he really cares about us. Even when we have both hope and hurt, sometimes it’s the hurt that shouts the loudest. Can God be good when life is not? You long to know that even in overwhelming reality, you can still believe that God is good.

I am a spouse of chronic pain
My husband has been battling chronic pain for years with no answers. Nobody knows why he is in pain so we don't have answers to if or how to treat him. It has dramatically effected our family. This book helped me understand what he is going through so I can help him on his journey. It also helped me rekindle my faith looking at this from a different perspective.

Processing the Grief of chronic illness
This books really helped me understand that I'm not alone in my chronic illness, pain and suffering. It can be hard to explain, and no one else in my life at my age (26) fully understands what I'm going through. Hearing personal stories from others and learning ways to grieve what I have lost has been so helpful. Most importantly, I learned new ways to trust God and and process My Grief and emotions with Him. Even if no one fully understands God does.
He knows what I'm going through. He is where I can find comfort and joy in this life and in my future place in heaven without Pain.

Incredible insight. Restore Hope.
Ms. Smith demonstrates incredible insights in how to grieve the inevitable and unpredictable losses which accompany every proud and self-sufficient lifestyle navigating the transition into a chronic pain lifestyle. She masterfully guides the reader towards a sustainable path forward that embraces the altogether unwelcome chronic pain, and by God’s grace, she restores a sense of hope and joy that too often seems lost forever to those suffering through chronic pain.
