The Light in the Valley: a Story of Faith and Courage Patricia Norman Rachal

True story of how one woman has loved living and working in spite of a debilitating disease. Through the dark valley of ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease), Mary Boyter has worked for the local sheriff's department, ministered to people in nursing homes and hospitals, volunteered for MDA and served on their board. She is featured on the MDA website on the ALS page. Mary is a seasoned speaker and is very active in church and other activities. Her doctors say she is unique to all other cases and is indeed a miracle. She has been a case study for interns and doctors at LSU Medical Center in Shreveport, LA. The Light in the Valley is filled with positive energy and encouragement.
