When the Music Stopped

Like a brilliant sunrise, Patti Wright's smile lifted the spirits of everyone she met along life's way. Her piano came to life as she transformed its silent keys into a unique musical interpretation that could warm the soul. As a wife of twenty-four years and a mother of twenty, everything seemed perfect.Then a cruel enemy entered the scene. It had no face, no personal identity, no visible weapon. ALS, Lou Gehrig's Disease, had entered Patti's body without anyone knowing. A brutal first wave of attack destroyed her ability to make music, as if deliberately attempting to crush her spirit. Over the next three and a half years, she gradually lost control of one muscle group after another, until only breathing remained.Yet, ALS never broke her spirit. She smiled to the end, and may have impacted as many people in death as she did in life. When the Music Stopped is a remarkable story of faith and courage in the face of incredible challenges.Wright, Mike is the author of 'When the Music Stopped' with ISBN 9781932196276 and ISBN 1932196277.
