Roy and Patsy had a blended family, meaning a family consisting of a couple, the children they had together, and their children from previous relationships. That caused a lot of issues and caused them to have a lot of arguments and disagreements, which almost caused them to divorce. Patsy's work was starting to take a strain on her, and her migraines were getting worse.

One day, when they took two of their daughters and their families on a Disney Cruise right before they were to board the ship, Patsy had an episode. She was just standing still and staring into space. It lasted for only a short amount of time. Then, two years later, Roy had gone to Atlanta. He got a call from Jimmy, his son-in-law, saying that Patsy was acting strange. Then he flew all the way back and begged her to follow him to Duke University Hospital for a check-up. Will the doctors find out what is wrong with her? Get a copy of When No One Else Believed: A Man's Love for a Woman by Ron Tripodo to find out. 

This story begins with the challenges Roy faced in getting a job and how God wanted him to write a book about the miracle of his wife's recovery and healing. And so he did. I really love how this book is all about having faith in God and how he always comes through for his children. As I read this book, I had a rollercoaster of emotions, from heartbreak over Patsy's illness and the various complications she faced to awe at Roy's steadfast love for her and his strong belief and faith that God would heal her. Finally, I was deeply moved by how Roy's strong faith was rewarded and how God fulfilled his promise.

For anyone currently struggling with a deep loss of hope, I highly recommend  When No One Else Believed: A Man's Love for a Woman by Ron Tripodo. The lack of errors in this book shows that it was perfectly edited. I have no hesitation whatsoever in giving this book a solid 5 out of 5 stars because I disliked nothing about it.

I am so glad that Patsy got the help that she needed and that she was healed. However, I am the partner of a person who is going through similar circumstances and he is not being healed even though I have a strong faith, also. Not everything miraculousy works out. Congratulations on BOTD!

Sometimes when things get hard, faith is God is what gets one through. Ron really loves his wife, as evident in this book. Thanks for the review!

Life is difficult for the person battling a prolonged illness. No doubt here. But the way it challenges the caregivers is unimaginable, feeling helpless and hopeless... Here it is good to know that Patsy has healed. This is surely a compelling and intense read. Adding it for a later read. Thanks for a great review.
