When Patricia Flores falls seriously ill, doctors are unable to give a diagnosis. Her disease most closely resembled amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ALS, a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. However, Patricia doesn't feel this diagnosis to be true. She gradually loses her voice and ability to swallow. Her vocal cords were paralyzed. She could not drink water without choking, and she couldn't swallow food. Patricia felt like she was dancing with death until finally, an answer: she had inclusion body myositis, or IBM. Through treatment, she endures many trials, but Patricia has a secret weapon: faith. Promise Me You Won't Give Up shares the inspiring story of Patricia's battle with inclusion body myositis (IBM), a disease that mimics many of the symptoms of the more commonly known ALS. Her faith and resilience throughout it all make her story one of encouragement and hope. It also serves as a call to awareness and action, imploring readers to educate themselves on neurological conditions so that we may strive toward finding a cure. Through it all, she keeps her eyes on Jesus, and He heals her.
