This is the powerful story of Gladys Aylward. Without formal education or a missionary organization to back her, Gladys raised her own finances for the overland trip that would bring her to the country and people that God had etched so deeply on her heart.... China! What follows is an amazing adventure of faith and determination. Gladys Aylward, a housemaid from England, dared to trust God in the face of dire and seemingly hopeless circumstances. Her amazing adventure of faith and determination is one of the truly great missionary stories of our era.

Wonderful story!

This is a beautiful depiction of a wonderful story. My only comment is that although narrator Rebecca Gallagher has a fabulous American voice, I wish the authors had used someone with a British accent as narrator. Gladys Aylward is a British hero and her story would have come even more alive if the narration had been in her home tongue and her voice realistic.

Wendy Mitchell had a busy job with the British National Health Service, raised her two daughters alone, and spent her weekends running and climbing mountains. Then, slowly, a mist settled deep inside the mind she once knew so well, blurring the world around her. She didn’t know it then, but dementia was starting to take hold. In 2014, at age 58, she was diagnosed with young-onset Alzheimer’s. In this groundbreaking book, Mitchell shares the heartrending story of her cognitive decline and how she has fought to stave it off.

Poignant & Powerful
Revisado: 06-14-18
I loved Wendy Mitchell’s memoir, Somebody I Used to Know. It was my first real experience with dementia and I found it beautiful, poignant, powerful and inspiring. I live with progressive Multiple Sclerosis and found lots of similarities between Wendy’s experience and my own - not necessarily physical ones, but emotional ones about living with an incurable disease.
I loved that it was Wendy narrating herself and find myself wishing everyone would read this in order to help make the world a better place for everyone.
