God Is Laughing

"The worst part of all is that even though I am bitter and angry and so mad at God I would spit-if I could, but I'm scared...all I can do is pray. Please, God, help me. Don't make me stay like this." Such are the thoughts of Mary Tucker, the "once full of unexplored potential" seventeen-year-old who is "locked in." A freak accident has left her utterly incapacitated, but her quick-witted brain works perfectly. What doctors call Locked In Syndrome is what Mary calls a nightmare. Join Mary as she remembers her struggle to escape the rural ghetto of Grosz Hill only to face an even greater challenge-healing her broken body and soul. Like so many teens, Mary could swear God is laughing-at her, and at the world. Can she heal herself physically? Can she heal herself spiritually? Only God knows.Dougherty, Brittany Luciani is the author of 'God Is Laughing', published 2004 under ISBN 9781413749731 and ISBN 1413749739.
