Faith lives a full life with a lot to be grateful for. She has three kids, has been married for over 26 years, manages her husband’s medical practice—a totally different occupation than she was trained for, has a Master’s in Education with a specialization in Learning Disabilities, and she is a published romance author.

Her new nonfiction book “Do You See What I See?” follows her journey of recovery from her eating disorder. It’s been quite a ride, too. There have been sharp turns, dark tunnels, highs, lows, and backward movements, but most importantly, there have been opportunities for growth and change.

These are Corrina’s words.

“I began drawing in 2010, at the age of 20, after struggling for two years with an unknown illness. Mostly bedridden, I turned to drawing as a constructive and therapeutic outlet. With severe insomnia, fatigue, a 24/7 migraine, anxiety, vision issues, digestive issues, problems with my adrenal glands, etc., there was very little I could physically or mentally accomplish. It was depressing and frustrating, and what helped keep me sane was the little amount of time I could draw while lying in my bed.

After four years of dabbling with drawing from my bed and couch during my “good” hours, I was finally diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease, Bartonella, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, and two types of pneumonia. I’ve been on treatment since April of 2014, and progress is slow, but significant! There’s still a long haul ahead of me with my treatment, but it’s working and I’m grateful I’m able to do as much as I can, and so much more than I could a few years ago.”
