(MENAFN- GetNews) Diagnosed at just thirteen days old with a rare genetic disorder known as Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD), Elizabeth Alison Stone was thrust into a world of uncertainty, strict medical regimens, and life-threatening challenges. In her new memoir, Pursuing God's Grace , Stone opens the door to her personal story of resilience, survival, and unshakable faith.

Through this deeply moving account, readers are invited to walk alongside Elizabeth as she navigates the emotional and physical turmoil brought on by her illness, culminating in two life-saving liver transplants-one in 2007 and another in 2024. Despite debilitating pain and countless setbacks, her spirit remained unbroken, her hope unextinguished.

“I have been lost, scared, angry, and resilient,” Elizabeth shares.“At my lowest points, I clung to hope and my faith. Through it all, God has always led me back home.”

The memoir is not just a medical journey; it is a spiritual one. From volunteering for eight years at a nonprofit advocating organ and tissue donation to speaking at events and churches, Elizabeth has dedicated her life to inspiring others with her message: never lose hope.

Set against the backdrop of her home in forested Bellevue, Nebraska-where she lives with her supportive family and her devoted emotional support dog, Howie-Elizabeth's story is a powerful reminder that our greatest trials can become our greatest testimonies.

Pursuing God's Grace is a beacon for anyone battling chronic illness, questioning their faith, or searching for a deeper sense of purpose. It is a story of pain, yes-but more importantly, it is a story of praise.
