About the Book

In "Strong at the Broken Places," bestselling author Richard M. Cohen shares a compelling account of the lives of five individuals who face different chronic illnesses, offering readers an intimate look into their journeys of resilience and strength. Through his meticulous research over three years, Cohen chronicles the lives of Denise, who battles ALS; Buzz, whose Christian faith helps him cope with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma; Sarah, a young woman determined to live with Crohn’s Disease; Ben, a college student enduring muscular dystrophy; and Larry, whose struggles with bipolar disorder remain hidden.

These diverse individuals, varying in age, gender, race, and economic background, all have one thing in common: an unyielding determination to live life on their own terms, despite the challenges life has thrown their way. Through their stories, Cohen presents a powerful message of self-determination, courage, and hope in the face of adversity.

This book is not just a collection of stories but an inspirational guide that teaches us the true strength of the human spirit. "Strong at the Broken Places" invites readers to reflect on their own resilience, offering valuable lessons on maintaining hope and determination in the most difficult circumstances. Cohen’s storytelling brings these stories to life, proving that we are all stronger than we think, especially in our most challenging moments.
