OverviewWhat happens when the life you planned is shattered in an instant? ""Elizabeth is one of the most remarkable women I have ever met... May her story ignite in you the same fire to live-fully, fiercely, and without limits."" - Lucy Quist, Author and Convenor of The Bold New Normal Elizabeth Patterson was a young woman with a promising future-until a near-fatal car crash changed everything. Left with a traumatic brain injury, she was given little hope of survival, let alone a meaningful life. But Patterson refused to be defined by medical predictions. My Life After Death is her extraordinary memoir of resilience, recovery, and defying expectations. In this deeply personal and inspiring story, Patterson takes readers through her arduous journey of rehabilitation, from learning to walk and speak again to reclaiming her identity and independence. She shares the struggles of navigating disability, balancing cultural expectations as a Ghanaian-American, and proving that motherhood, education, and advocacy are not beyond reach. Despite society's doubts, she breaks barriers, challenges stigmas, and ultimately finds purpose in empowering others. This memoir is more than a survival story-it's a powerful testament to perseverance, identity, and the limitless possibilities that come from embracing life's unexpected paths. If you believe in the power of resilience and redefining what's possible, this book is for you. Get your copy of My Life After Death today!
