Lonna Lisa Williams survived a tragic childhood and cancer. Then she realized she was an abused wife. But instead of striking out for a new life, she retreated into prescription medicine that her doctors gave her. A wildfire burned her California mountains, and Lonna left the charred land and flew all the way to New Zealand with her two trusting children. She lost an international trial and returned to California where she lost everything in divorce. Her castle of a home was gone, her children hidden from her, and Lonna’s downward spiral into drugs continued. She crashed her car in the mountains. Another wildfire scarred the land when she was staying in a motel. When Lonna finally abandoned all her medication, she did so without the help of doctors and almost bled to death. But, like the mythical phoenix bird and through the power of resurrection, Lonna rose to a new life of teaching English overseas. Walk with her on this journey of adventure, across the frozen rivers of Russia and to the sunset seas of Turkey. Discover how the extremes of fire and ice can shape a person’s life. Catch a flame and snowflake in a camera’s lens and listen to the music of this writer.
