A note from the author: We cannot underestimate the power of friendship to help pull a person out of the darkness of depression. Thanks to the special people in my life who didn't leave, this is a story of hope, divine intervention, and redemption.
Most of all, this is a story about friendship. Friendship that breaks down walls and fills in the hardened cracks of our desperate souls with love. Unconditional, life-changing love.
If you are fighting for someone you love, I hope that you will find courage and strength in my story. May you find hope and light in these chapters. May you find freedom and worthiness not only in this story, but also in yours.
About the author
Ruthie lives a happy, amazing, normal life in Fort Collins, Colorado, with her husband and their three wildly expressive children. She likes to spend her days in the garden developing her not-so-green thumb, hiking, and chasing sunsets at the lake. Cooking is her favorite therapy, and writing is her preferred form of art. Church is a field of wildflowers, and she has definitely found God at the golden hour. When she is not forming paragraphs and crafting stories, she can be found with her outdated Samsung, shooting closeups of grass and other weird things. She will never turn down a cappuccino with extra foam or an iced latte-even if it's cold outside. And if you bring her a pie, she will be your friend for life.
