Book Description

2004
Gloria Revilla Doyle, at the age of 41, was disabled by exploratory surgery. With the stroke of a knife, neurosurgery left her a "walking" quadriplegic. Diagnosed with an inoperable spinal cord tumor, a rare progressive condition, the medical prognosis was grim. Western medicine offered no cure, yet she has endured and survived. Her personal odyssey has been a quest for healing and knowledge that transcends disability.

5.0 out of 5 stars Commentary on the book, April 13, 2009

Denis P. Doyle (Chevy Chase, MD United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Memoir: A Journey Not Chosen (Paperback)
Early in this manuscript about her discoveries in disability, Gloria Revilla Doyle writes of making `a pilgrimage in search of grace.' A Journey Not Chosen demonstrates that she has indeed found the grace she sought. There is no bitterness, self-pity, or self-indulgence on these pages. Instead, Gloria's clear, insightful voice rings out with deeply achieved lessons in humanity."

SUSAN STAMBERG, National Public Radio



"This is a magnificent story about suffering, growth, faith and strength. You will remember it for life."

MORTON KONDRACKE, Roll Call newspaper, Fox News, author of Saving Milly: Love, Politics and Parkinson's Disease
