WHAT IF THE WALL THAT SAVED YOUR LIFE ALSO KEPT LOVE OUT?
Mark H. Awad spent his childhood surrounded by shelling, gunfire, death, and uncertainty during the war in Lebanon.
To survive, he learned not to feel.
That emotional distance became a source of strength. It allowed him to immigrate to America, face uncertainty without fear, build businesses, travel the world, and pursue opportunities others considered impossible.
But survival came with a hidden cost.
Behind the achievement was a man who struggled to connect, trust, and recognize love—even when it was standing directly in front of him.
Then he met Kate.
Through her patience, wisdom, and ordinary acts of care, she reached a part of him that war had buried. For the first time in years, his house felt like a home. His carefully protected life began to open.
But feeling love and knowing how to accept it are not the same thing.
By the time Mark understood what Kate had awakened inside him, she was gone.
Beyond Numb is a deeply personal memoir about war, survival, loneliness, regret, and the woman who taught one man that protecting yourself from pain can also protect you from happiness.
Some people survive by building walls.
Living begins when they find the courage to open them.
