From Broken to Blest: Embracing the Healing That Awaits You is a true story written by author Adele M. Gill who grew up with a mother who was severely mentally ill, and a father who she later learned led a double life in the Mafia. As a result of untreated childhood trauma, Adele has struggled with depression and PTSD, complicated by living with a life threatening neuro-autoimmune condition, myasthenia gravis that was misdiagnosed for 40 years.
Overwhelmed by living with both traumatic memories, flashbacks and nightmares, as well as, long term infirmity caused by untreated childhood trauma, all seemed lost. Then one day Adele awakened to the realization that her mind-body healing was a ‘God job’ if there ever was one—something that only Jesus, The Great Healer, could heal; and she’s been on the ‘Miracle Installment Plan’ ever since.
Once she discovered that God was ever-present and all-loving, the polar opposite of her own father, who did his underworld ‘business’ with her in tow from the age of 4, her life changed forever. With Jesus’ help, Adele was able to face and deal with her devastating early life through psychotherapy and prayer. God healed her depression, and turned her PTSD and despair into a deep, abiding faith, inner peace, and contagious joy. This book is about how Adele, with God’s help, was able to move from broken to blessed, by placing her trust in Jesus, and embracing the healing that awaited her.
