The after-effects of the tumor surgery; a subsequent second brain tumor; a prior compression fracture to her back resulting from being attacked in-flight while working as a flight attendant; the traumatic loss of her beloved father to cancer; and other ongoing and significant life trauma, all provided Annie with an insight and understanding of what it is like to live with physical limitations and post traumatic stress.<br /> <br /> Never one to complain, Annie proactively embraced her life circumstances, finding her purpose in serving in the military who suffer from PTSD and other service-related medical issues. She created a non-profit organization, the American Soldier Network, which supports veterans and their families.<br /> <br /> With humor, humility and transparency, Annie provides the reader with five "Pillars of Resilience"--lessons she learned on her journey back from one crisis after another, that anyone can apply to live their life with more faith, passion and purpose.</p>
