Born in Louisiana, Jennifer graduated from Louisiana State University in 1986 with a degree in Journalism. Subsequently, she moved to Atlanta, GA where she worked for a medical publishing company and then for a national nonprofit fundraising organization in Atlanta as a Vice President.
In Atlanta, Jennifer suffered a massive brain stem stroke and was given a 4% survival rate by her surgeon. On route to the emergency room via ambulance she lost the function of all her organs and was resuscitated. After an 8 month stint in a local Atlanta, GA rehab facility, Jennifer moved with her husband to Springfield, MO where she had a number of editorials published in the newspaper and eventually wrote this book.
The hemorrhagic stroke that she experienced at 36 years old (23 years ago) made her unable to work as she once did so she is currently on long-term disability.view less
