Rene Steelman announces the arrival of her new book 'Heaven Sent & Bent', available in paperback and eBook through Amazon and retail outlets. The first-time author wrote this book to share the story of her life's greatest gift and greatest challenge. Rene's sixth child, TJ, was born with Cerebral Palsy and other health challenges. Raising a child with disabilities taught Rene the lessons of perseverance, patience, faith, and learning to seek and accept help from others.

"Having an 'imperfect' child gave me gifts beyond measure," Steelman says, adding that a child with multiple health issues will challenge one's faith, marriage and patience.

'Heaven Sent and Bent' is receiving rave reviews from mothers and authors who believe that while motherhood is one of the hardest jobs on the planet, it is also one of the most important ones, as well. The book shares some of Rene's favorite scriptures and inspirations that has offered her comfort and support. Her son TJ is now 30 years old. The book discusses and shares with readers the grief and acceptance in realizing how the dreams and fantasies a young mother once had were dashed and replaced with another lifestyle that requires ongoing resilience, strength, faith, and humor.

'Heaven Sent and Bent' is funny, irreverent, and a learning tool for women of all ages to learn the lesson of accepting life's challenges with grace, faith and humor. For media inquiries, contact Diane at info(at)inspiredmc(dot)com
