Left Turn, Life Unimagined

Jenna Anderson, a small-town middle school teacher, at thirty-six years old, though she felt confident in her personhood, motherhood, purpose-hood, and all the other, "hoods." On an ordinary fall Tuesday, Jenna and her daughters made a left turn home and the unimaginable happened; an accident. Life took a tragic turn for many people when Jenna collided with a motorcyclist. Everything began to unravel and life as she knew it was falling apart, her identity, faith, and mental health. She battles the voices of guilt and whispers of shame and countless questions without hope of answers on this side of heaven. Specifically, questions like, why did David have to die? Will she be sentenced to prison? Can her marriage survive? How can she forgive herself? This is the raw and transparent journey to find her faith, restore hope, and accept forgiveness. Left Turn is a rare account of traumatic events such as accidents with a fatality, and how it exposed layers of pain. "Jenna," works through her PTSD, moral injury, and depression.
