The Amazing Technicolour Pyjama Therapy

Some illnesses begin with a bang, when you're whisked off to the hospital or unable to get out of bed. Other conditions creep in until normal life is no longer normal. It's a new and scary world.

Emily Ackerman knows this world only too well. She knows what it feels like to cry out to God, to wait year after year while God works through her suffering to fulfill His plans for her life. Here she shares survival strategies, encouragement, practical advice, and fresh ways to view your situation. With plenty of good news from the Bible about living abundantly and usefully with illness, you'll discover the sure knowledge that God hasn't given up on you.

Emily Ackerman was disabled by chronic illness in her twenties. She learned creative and efficient ways of living life to the full as a wife and mother, and even while caring for her own mother. Her first book, A Time to Care, was published by IVP. Emily is married to Gordon and they have a son and daughter.
