On May 12, 2015, Amtrak 188 derailed outside of Philadelphia going 106 miles per hour. Geralyn Ritter was thrown from the train with such force that she sustained catastrophic injuries to her chest, her abdomen, and her pelvis. Found unconscious, unable to breathe, and suffering massive blood loss, she was not expected to survive. After enduring weeks in the ICU, dozens of surgeries over the following years, unremitting pain, PTSD, depression, and opioid dependence, Geralyn was faced with a daunting question: Beyond mere survival after trauma, where is the path back to joy?

Disturbingly powerful

This is a profound story of, as the author says, gratitude, grief, and grace. If you ever wondered “how can a person survive” a catastrophic accident, this book gives some insight (though I can tell there is far more to the story). If you want to explore the same question the context of human evil, I recommend “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor Frankl.
