"It is impossible to remain unmoved by Gregory's emotional, open memoir of surviving the Boston Marathon bombing in 2013. . . . This is a truly feel-good book that doesn't stint on the challenges that life throws at us."--Publishers Weekly, starred review

*****

On April 15, 2013, Rebekah Gregory and her five-year-old son waited at the finish line of the Boston Marathon to support a friend who was running. When the blasts of terrorists' homemade bombs packed with nails and screws went off three feet away, Rebekah's legs took the brunt of the blast, protecting her son from certain death. Eighteen surgeries and sixty-five procedures later, her left leg was amputated.

Despite the extraordinary trauma she underwent and the nightmares she continues to have, Rebekah sees it as just another part of her personal journey, a journey that has led her through abuse, mistakes, and pain and into the arms of Jesus. This stirring memoir tells the story of her recovery, including her triumphant return to Boston two years later to run part of the race, and explores the peace we experience when we learn to trust God with every part of our lives--the good, the bad, and even the terrifying.

Readers will be moved by the joyous way Rebekah is determined to live her life, seeing every obstacle as part of how God forms us into the people we are meant to be. Readers will also find comfort in the message that it's not what they can or can't do that makes the difference, but rather what God, in his mercy, does through them despite it all. Life is hard, but with God all things are possible.

A nice comfy pillow.
Team Name: Pack of 2, Size: Queen - 20" x 30", Color: Blue Edge
A Recently had a pillow that broke and needed a new one. I love this pillows firmness. This pillow is expensive just for one, but I gave the other pillow to my brother as I thought if one of his pillows falls apart, he has one too. I’m not sure how durable this pillow is, but it looks pretty sturdy. It does get flat within 3 weeks after opening. It does not cool.

Fluffy, Supportive, and Perfect for a Great Night’s Sleep
Team Name: Pack of 2, Size: Queen - 20" x 30", Color: White
I purchased the Premium Queen Size Pillow set of two on a flash deal, and I’m so glad I did! These pillows have the perfect balance of softness, thickness, and firmness. At about nine inches thick when fluffed, they easily compress down to about three inches, thanks to the down alternative fill. This makes them incredibly supportive without pushing my neck up too high. The down alternative filling gives just the right amount of “nestle,” letting my head and neck sink in comfortably, which has improved my sleep quality tremendously. They’re fluffy yet still provide that soft firm support I love. Another big plus is washability. I can toss them in the wash, and they come out looking and feeling like new. For a 2-pack, they’re a fantastic value for money, and I would purchase them again.

Premium Pillows
Team Name: Pack of 2, Size: Queen - 20" x 30", Color: White
Purchase these as a gift for1 of my children that had terrible pillows. To say she was pleased would be an understatement. She said that these were some of the softest and most comfortable pillows she had ever used. They remained puffy while conforming comfortably to her sleep style. She was absolutely in love and I would definitely purchase again.

I love these pillows. At first they felt a little firmer than I wanted but they quickly became very comfortable and just want I wanted. Seems to be great quality.
