Rebekah Lansing has found the love of her life--Dr. Richard Moore. Everything is moving along perfectly, they're preparing wedding plans, but then Rebekah is in a horrible car wreck; she's hit by a drunk driver. When she awakens in a hospital, she's paralyzed, unable to communicate. At first glance, a patient in a persistent vegetative state may appear only to be resting, eyes open. This is what I pictured as I read Do No Harm by Kathi Macias. I visualized Rebekah unable to move, trapped like a prisoner--her body her cell. But Rebekah's mind is sharp--she hears everything that's said; she sees those she loves and the expressions on their faces. She knows what's going on around her. Being inside Rebekah's head will break your heart.Author Kathi Macias has outdone herself with this heartbreaking story. I found it difficult to read--but only because I'm the mother of a daughter. You'll be reminded of Terri Schiavo and Karen Ann Quinlan, maybe even a personal experience. And hopefully, you'll be reminded to pray for your children.I highly recommend Do No Harm by Kathi Macias.
