Summary

Emily Owen was a highly intelligent teenager who was also athletic and a skilled musician. Tragically, in her late teens she was diagnosed as suffering from Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2). Since then, Emily has survived many complicated surgical procedures, been close to death, and seen the gradual erosion of all the abilities that defined her personality including the total loss of her hearing. Despite this, she has a remarkable sense of humor and has coped with everything she has been through due to her strong Christian faith, her supportive family, and indomitable personality. Now, Emily has published her story in a moving book which describes the years of intracranial surgery that she underwent with the gradual loss of the facilities that defined her life, her hearing ,and her balance, and a gradual re-evaluation of her life plans.

Brilliant

A fantastic insight into living life with NF2. Emily’s faith, strength and the love shown to her by her family and everyone who knows her, enable her to overcome huge challenges time after time. I love both reading and listening to Emily’s life story so far. I’m looking forward to part 2. Thanks for sharing Emily.
