"Came in for Diarrhea, Stayed for the Drama" is more than a hospital memoir-it's a raw, unfiltered testimony of survival, faith, and resilience.
When Nadine's life was suddenly derailed by illness, she found herself in the middle of endless needles, medical confusion, and days that blurred into nights. But between the pain and the waiting, she also found compassion in unexpected places-nurses who cared, strangers who prayed, and a God who never let go.
With honesty, humor, and courage, Nadine shares what it's really like to battle sickness, uncertainty, and exhaustion-while still holding on to faith. Each chapter captures the physical fight, the emotional toll, and the small joys that became lifelines in the chaos.
This isn't just a story of what she endured.
It's a story of transformation.
It's proof that even in life's darkest valleys, there are lessons, laughter, and light worth sharing.
If you've ever faced hardship, struggled for answers, or wondered where God is in the middle of suffering-this book will remind you: You're not alone. You're still standing.

What the Pain Couldn't Take
She looks fine on the outside. But inside, she's carrying a quiet storm. Living with a chronic illness no one can see, Amina learns to navigate a life full of missed moments, aching silence, and the weight of being misunderstood. But even as her body slows her down, something deeper begins to grow-resilience, reflection, and a strength the world often overlooks. This is not just a story about pain. It's about what pain couldn't take-hope, identity, and the courage to keep going. Told through stillness, strength, and soft moments of prayer, What the Pain Couldn't Take is a story of healing for anyone who's ever felt broken, tired, or left behind.Concluida
Life as it is
She doesn't talk about it not out loud. Not the childhood stolen behind closed doors. Not the nights that blurred into silence. Not the years of shame, of pain, of pretending to be okay. But on the page? She tells the truth. In this deeply personal and soul baring collection, a young woman traces her path through a lifetime of abuse, betrayal, and grief-and the quiet, aching journey of healing that follows. Through poetry, she unearths the stories she's never spoken aloud, giving voice to the trauma that shaped her, and the strength that's carried her through. Each poem is a heartbeat. A scar. A step forward. Sometimes backwards. But always hers. Living. Breaking. Surviving. Healing. This is not just her story. It's the story of anyone who's ever felt broken, unseen, or unheard and still chose to write themselves into the light.Concluida
Into the wild
Hurt, pain, doubt, insecurity, temporary happiness, fear, toxic relationships, anger, anxiety, issues, and chaos. They were the unwelcome passengers on my road trip of life. While being pregnant with my daughter Lea, I was in a really dark place and one day I met some random girl in college name Nicole, she sat next to me on the hallway floor. Her being there was making me tremble from the inside out. But it wasn't her, it was Jesus in her. The way she let Jesus take over her life, made everyone feel the presence of God. I started to sobbed and she hugged me (without knowing me) then I cried even harder. She said, "there's nothing you can do that will make God unlove you." To make the long story short, that day I surrender my life to Jesus and made a friend for life. I decided to make this 39 days bookish of writings because when life hit us hard we need a reminder of hope, joy, faith, love, and worth. The thing that inspires me every time I find myself in great difficulty is the knowledge that God loves me unconditionally, despite all my shortcomings.Concluida

I Remember
I decided to write this memoir for my kids. Kalina, Braylon and Bryce. I wanted them to know how I grew up and what all happened when I was a child. Maybe one day they can sit down and read this little book and remember MOMMA. I want to also apologize if this memoir offends any family member, every one has their memories of events in their lives. Let me tell mines as I lived them and as they were told to me by other family members during my lifetime. This book is filled with traumatic yet funny memories of my upbringing. It's a tell all from what I went through, in my eyes not anyone else's. Hope you enjoy reading this as I've enjoyed writing it. It's not meant to seek pity, instead it's written to shine light on the real problems of society. poverty, single moms, the damage due to drugs, incest, abuse and most of all, origins of brokenness. We all have a story to tell, mine is of survival. It didn't happened to me it happened for my good. God is good!! Be blessed.Concluida

Like The Thunder Roaring
"The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the World, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:9-14) What that first Easter might have been like. The climax of God's plan for humanity, from Palm Sunday to Peter's reinstatement. Main title and chapter titles are from songs that I used to capture the mood of the moment, as it were, and I would really encourage you to listen to them. They are: Main title: "Glory" by The City Harmonic 1. without a crown: "Baby Boy" by For King & Country 2. the taste of eternity is here on our lips: "Taste of Eternity" by Bellarive 3. let me see redemption win: "Worn" by Tenth Avenue North 4. i heard a voice from the other side singing, "hold fast, love lasts.": "Without You" by For King & Country 5. when you know it, once you know it, and you hold it--it's unforgettable: "To The Dreamers" by For King & Country 6. keep my head from going down: "Something To Believe In" by Parachute 7. i could use a fresh beginning, too: "Learning to Breathe" by Switchfoot (cover by @sugarcrystals, who is amazing and you should really check out her work. Both writing wise and cover wise. I literally gave her "thunder storm themed" and she came up with that. Because I am useless at giving hints.)Concluida![Indigo Skies | A Short Story [COMPLETE]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/287159833-256-k983236.jpg)
