About this audiobook
Weeks after giving birth, Holly Frances went from being a healthy 26-year-old new mom to paralyzed and on life support—in less than 72 hours. Diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder called Guillain-Barre Syndrome, Holly was trapped in her body, unable to move, speak, or hold her newborn daughter. Life Support tells the story of how Holly struggled to overcome the despair, hopelessness and physical pain, to regain her health and get back to being a mother to her daughter. This heart-wrenching memoir intertwines the 126 days Holly spent in hospital, with her childhood, family life, and eventual recovery. Holly’s recovery videos on social media have inspired many with her fighting spirit and have over 20 million views from around the world. With the addition of new chapters and years passed, Life Support replaces Holly’s first book, Happily Ever After: My Journey with Guillain-Barre Syndrome and How I Got My Life Back. Written by Holly Frances, read by Jaclyn Chantel. With support from the Beaumont Arts Council and the Edmonton Arts Council.
