Held
Almost six years have passed since 9/11, but the sense of trauma has scarcely faded for some Americans. Haskin, a survivor of Tower One, went on to face a terrible struggle with posttraumatic stress disorder. This is the story of her journey to recovery and renewed function and purpose, partly recast as advice to other survivors of catastrophe. Gradually, through what she sees as God's grace, she has turned her anger and dismay into triumph: "my life, my stories, and my living now are about giving all of me."

Once upon a time : when towers fall
Sleeper cells, tsunamis, and earthquakes, oh my! what's bigger than this?
The loss of a loved one : beauty for ashes
Detour : I want my life back
What now? miles to go before I sleep
The awakening : slowing down to move forward
Perfect gifts : grace flows down
A daily dose of starting from here : just what the doctor ordered
The great outdoors : time alone ... with daddy
In search of me
The perfect place for me : at the foot of the cross
Miracles : boiling an ocean, curing world hunger, and saving me
When the body cannot be present : healing waters
So this is life : falling in love
... and being held
And now, surrender : perfect submission, perfect delights
Living from the beginning
Its gonna be worth it
Finally, the everlasting
My final words of encouragement
An afterthought : five vows for spiritual power by A W. Tozer
