Light in the Darkest Night

By Ebbie C. Smith

Shirley Stone faced challenges far beyond what any 26-year-old women should experience in a lifetime. She would, however, have to deal with these excruciating challenges in less than 12 months. How was she to handle?

- Accepting the horrible injuries her husband received in an automobile accident
- Being brutally raped in her own home and then discovering that she had become pregnant from the trauma
- Accepting and dealing with the disturbing response of her husband to his injuries, her rape, and the possibility of a child
- Deciding if she should continue the pregnancy or resort to abortion
- Dealing with nearly impossible situations in her position as Information Technology Director
- Caring for her badly injured and now dependent husband along with the a new baby
- Deciding on giving the child for adoption or risk the loss of her marriage
- Rebuilding her self-esteem, her marriage relationship, her professional life
- Finding some peace in the horrendous life into which she had been thrust

This story follows a courageous woman as she finds escape from circumstances that were beyond her control yet subject to her decisions. A story of tragedy, trial, and victory.
