The Wisdom of a Loving Heart Nancy Louise Hammons Rivers

Revised Edition with a foreword by Joni Eareckson Tada: Get a copy of The Wisdom of a Loving Heart, carry it off to your favorite reading retreat, but be prepared to make Nancy Rivers one of your best friends, someone who will let you meet her intriguing family members, her very loving husband, and even a real mountain mama. You will be grateful that she took moments to record the romance of her marriage, her perspective on faith, her gratitude for the simple joys of life. Yes, she had muscular dystrophy, of the FSH variety, but it took little away from her adventuresome spirit, her inquisitive mind, her no-nonsense clarity. You will learn why she went to extreme measures so she could keep wearing high heel shoes as long as possible, why she didn't want people to act like they didn't see her wheelchair, how she helped a small Appalachian town open a first-class restaurant (with Ethel Kennedy's assistance).
