I am honored that the story of my 94 year old grandmother Verna's near death experience is included in this compilation.  Available through Amazon on Kindle and soon to be available in paperback.  This is what Amazon.com says about this book:  

In Real Women Real Wisdom, 17 ordinary yet extraordinary women—most in their 50s and 60s—reflect on the challenges, mysteries and ultimately the triumphs in their lives. Their stories tell of the transformative experiences of loss, suffering, life-threatening illness, recovery, and forgiveness, as well as the quiet moments of reflection that have led to their personal encounters with the Divine. The journeys they share hold great wisdom, hope and inspiration for all who read about them.

..... and the link on Amazon.com:

www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/0615476805/ref=dp_image_0

The book is available from the publisher, as well as arrangement for speaking engagements by the author at www.graywingspress.com.

Other than those facts, everything else is suspiciously, serendipitously, unscrupulously subjective.
