A military family’s medical crisis

Naomi Thomas recounts the experience of her husband, Army veteran Chad, after he was misdiagnosed and mistreated, bringing him close to losing his leg and his life. The account also follows Thomas’s role as his wife, a nurse, and his patient advocate as the couple sought answers and support. Their ordeal becomes a turning point in their faith, which the description identifies as a lasting change in their lives. The book brings together military family life, patient advocacy, and a Christian account of confronting a medical crisis.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in first-person accounts involving military families and veterans.
  • Readers seeking stories about family advocacy during a medical crisis.
  • Readers interested in Christian faith as part of a family’s response to hardship.

Book overview

On the battlefield the military pledges to leave no soldier behind. As a Nation, let it be our pledge that when they return home, we leave no Veteran behind.

 

 

-Dan Lipinski

 

 

We told them that we did not want anyone to get in trouble. We told them that we just wanted to find out what was really wrong with Chad and get on with our lives. We told them that we wanted the nightmare to be over with. We were exhausted, we were broken, we were almost defeated...

 

Naomi first described what happened to them as a nightmare. Looking back years later, she realizes that it was not a nightmare; it was a perfect storm.

 

This is a true story of how an Army Veteran was misdiagnosed, mistreated, and almost lost his leg and his life. This is a story of how his wife/nurse/patient advocate fought for him. This is a story of how this tragedy led them to Jesus and how their lives were forever changed.
