When Skies Aren’t Blue by Andy Laurie, MD – Book Review
Can you imagine being in the prime of your life – healthy, happy, successful – only to wake up one day and have your health snatched away from you?
I hope your answer is no, but if it isn’t – if you or someone you know has experienced the devastating life change that comes with the discovery of a chronic, incurable illness – then Andy Laurie, MD has written a book that you can’t afford to miss!
In his autobiography When Skies Aren’t Blue – A Physician’s Personal Journey. Andy Laurie shares his journey from being a young, healthy and successful medical doctor with a beautiful wife and 4 children to waking up one day at age 39 with symptoms that no one could diagnose – symptoms that refused to go away.
His search for answers led him to the Mayo Clinic where he was diagnosed rare disease for which there is no cure. And a surgical attempt to improve his symptoms led to medical complications that added to, not subtracted from, the health challenges he was having.
Andy has been living with this condition for the past two decades but thankfully, his story does not end there. Andy is also a pastor, and in his inspiring book, he shares 10 powerful, biblical spiritual prescriptions to help you weather the ongoing storm and not buckle under the weight of your battle.
As someone who has battled with chronic illnesses for decades, I found When Skies Aren’t Blue an easy-to-read, thoroughly inspiring and impactful book that helps you recognize that the spiritual dynamics that come into play when you are dealing with challenges such as these.
I rate this book 5/5 stars and highly recommend it to you!
