Just four words..."Ijeoma, I'm praying for Kechi".......
It's amazing how these words sustained me in South Africa, especially, at those times counted in hours, when I would look at Kechi's still form, and will her to fight, to live.
To everyone who spoke these life-giving words that continually renewed my spirit, thank you.
Those words are now a part of me. When I know someone is in trouble, I call and I say, "I'm praying for you".

  5. Nice to see a lot of activity here. I would love to see Ije address some of the questions we might still have. Why don't we begin to fire her with questions that I am sure arose while we read.

  9. @zing, Thanks for your comment.
    Putting my total focus and trust in God was the only way to get through those traumatic experiences. I made a wonderful discovery - when I trusted God enough to let go, I quit worrying about what would happen, and instead started to look forward to how He would resolve the issue.
    I hope the book has been all you expected and more, and I would love more comments, and even questions, from you.
