Broken Promises is the story of Shari Lynn and her all-too short life. When her heart stopped in the womb due to a physician's error, it caused serious, lifelong medical issues. During her delivery her father felt that something was wrong but ignored that feeling. At the time he felt God was telling him to speak up, but he did not step up.
In the NICU, he heard a clear voice telling him that she would be okay, and he made that promise to her every day as he put her to bed. When she turned three, he became a single father and at the age of ten had to make the heartbreaking decision to withdraw care and let her pass. The book is a letter to her explaining what happened, his struggle with God over the events, what he feels was an unforgivable mistake by not speaking out during her birth, and his attempts to heal afterwards.

'ACCEPTED'-, but it's hurt....
"She accepted the darkness not as punishment, but as home." 🌸🌸🌸 Anya has a father and three brothers. But they don't really care about her-they're just family by name. After Anya's mother died giving birth to her, the blame for her death was placed on Anya. Since then, the only things she has received from her father and brothers are blame, disrespect, ignorance, abusive words, and bullying-especially from her two elder brothers. They call her unlucky, a bad omen, a symbol of misfortune. They hate her. And over time, Anya has come to accept all of it. She has started to believe it herself-that she is cursed, that she brings bad luck. Anya is just 16 years old, but she's not like other girls her age. She has never lived a normal childhood-no fun, no laughter, no affection. Her whole life has revolved around just one thing: studying. Whether in school or locked inside her four-walled room, that's all she's ever known. She doesn't like facing her family. Deep inside, she believes she's the reason they're always upset, that her presence is a burden. She truly thinks she's not good enough to live under the same roof with them. Now, she's made a decision: after she turns 18, she will leave. Not to run away-but to protect them from herself. But what will happen when her family finds out what she's planning? Will they feel relief-or regret? Do they truly hate her-or have they just never tried to understand her?

Or will she finally choose herself-for the first time in her life?
