Local Author Dena Tyson publishes her first book “Give Me the Strength”, a truly inspiring, witty and courageous story, about taking back control of your life. Depicting a young man who suffers a stroke behind the wheel, finding himself in the middle of rush hour traffic. Taking a quote from the novel “the more you do the better you become” were the words of his wife of eighteen years who took his life into her own hands. She never allowed him to stop believing that he could. He never lost hope, and he never gave up. This is an incredible story and is available at www.denatyson.com.
