Review

In Some Kind of Normal, author Heidi Willis explores the strength of the human spirit and a family in crisis. As the Babcock family faces a life-threatening illness, they must also deal with the opposing positions of medical science and their church. Heidi's book brings these issues together in a clear, compelling tale that held my interest from the first page until the end.

Among other things, this story explores the diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes, in itself a life-changing event. Then the family faces devastating setbacks. With the illness as a central theme, Heidi writes about a family coming to grips with issues that touch every aspect of their lives. This book is a great read, an inspirational story, and an excellent way to gain insight into how we can balance our religious beliefs with medical science. Heidi challenges us to ask: Are we healed by God, or by medical science created by God? Some Kind of Normal allows each reader to explore this question without prejudice or bias.

Congratulations to the author on a wonderful story. --Randall L. Strozyk, Chief Executive Officer, American Medical Response

I read Ms. Willis' book in two sittings. On my laptop. In a hotel. Engrossed. Yes, the technical parts appealed to my professional inclinations, but this gentle piece of fiction set in a small town in Texas (aren't all Texas towns small?) isn't just another medical novella. It's a story of victorious faith. Other triumphs worthy of note are in the book, not the least of which is the cure of a charming young woman from the travails and vicissitudes of Type I diabetes. That and the adult stem cell transplant are accurately portrayed. More than anything else, faith in God that triumphs over all odds is movingly recounted and touchingly told. A delightful tale of recovery and renewal--of more than one kind! A great read! --Abraham Kuruvilla, ThM, MD, PhD Dallas Theological Seminary Dallas Associated Dermatologists
