A MEMOIR~"Pushing back on the norm, following my gut, and changing the narrative; navigating as a caregiver through life's curveballs, my way."
When Annas daughter's mysterious environmental illness, after the high profile death of her husband, USAF F-22 pilot, sent her on a mission to seek the truth by following her intuition. Her past heartbreak and struggles tell a story of unwavering commitment to her family during a series of bizarre and never ending challenges.
While discovering a theme in her life of political power and greed, and its ability to decide who lives or dies, Anna pulls strength from her relentless loyalty to her family and seeks against all odds to find the answers herself.
SAVING AVA is a story about the power of a mother's love and trusting your gut instincts even when it goes against everything you have been taught to believe.
An extremely powerful memoir written by an incredibly strong and determined mother who refused to accept standard treatments and responses when it came to her family’s health. This book touches on the many frustrating aspects of our health care system and the fight that’s unfortunately required to push against the norms when you know in your gut that something is wrong and misdiagnosed. Anna shares her personal story of life as a military wife, her husband, Jeff’s, tragic death, the fight to clear his name, the medical challenges her children face and the political power and greed that masks so many answers that she pushed to uncover and reveal. I couldn’t stop reading and am beyond encouraged now to pursue solutions to personal gastrointestinal issues that have been brushed under the rug by multiple medical professionals. Well worth the read!
