Defeating Dysautonomia
One Spoon at a Time, With Faith, Hope and Love
A woman hard hit by dysautonomia, a severe autoimmune neurotoxicity disease, recovers through sheer faith in God and with the help of one remarkable cardiologist. Defeating Dysautonomia: One Spoon at a Time with Faith, Hope, and Love is Tara Smith Johnson’s brave, resilient story. Each chapter accompanies clinical responses from various physicians who have helped her along her arduous journey, offering a common-sense approach when experiencing symptoms associated with chronic illnesses and autoimmune diseases. With Scriptures and helpful, healing solutions woven throughout each chapter, the chronic illness community will be encouraged and sustained that they too can find hope and healing toward a manageable lifestyle.
“…paints a poignant picture in snapshots of her life of what it looks like to find hope when there is no cure.”
"Tara's story as a mast cell patient is one of hope. It will be well received by the community."
"Tara Johnson is healing from the inside out! This book hits a home run for every person who is weary from facing diagnosis after diagnosis and tired of fighting the battle daily. For those suffering from chronic illness, her words come alongside you like a good friend reassuring you are not alone, not crazy, and have a purpose in God's plan for your life. It takes a story like Tara's to touch our heart, teach us empathy, and to trust God more than we ever imagined possible."
“but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.”
Isaiah 40:31 NIV
