Author Dee Dee (Adalia) Ward delivers a deeply moving and inspirational true story in her new book, My Shattered Life, a heartfelt testament to faith, resilience, healing, and the extraordinary power of prayer.
Set against the backdrop of unimaginable tragedy and recovery, My Shattered Life recounts the life changing journey Dee Dee and her son Andy faced after a devastating accident that forever altered their lives. Told with honesty, courage, and unwavering faith, the book chronicles their emotional and spiritual battle through severe medical diagnoses, painful uncertainty, and the long road toward healing.
Doctors believed Andy would not survive. Yet through persistent prayer, faith in God, and the support of compassionate people placed in their path, Dee Dee and Andy experienced what they believe were undeniable miracles.
“I answered the call from my Lord to write this book and give hope to others during their trials and tribulations,” says Ward.
Originally started in 2020, the manuscript remained unfinished for years as Dee Dee struggled to relive the pain of the experience. After the twentieth anniversary of the accident, she felt called once again to complete the story and share its message with the world.
More than a memoir, My Shattered Life is an uplifting reminder that even during life’s darkest moments, hope can still shine through. Readers facing grief, trauma, illness, or uncertainty will find encouragement through Dee Dee’s message:
“Pray with authority, boldness, and belief. Believe in God’s timing, not ours. Do not give up.”
Born in Corsicana, Texas, Dee Dee Ward built a life rooted in perseverance, hard work, and faith. Her professional career included twenty two successful years with AT&T, where she fulfilled her dream of working in the aviation department dispatching company jets. Through personal hardships, motherhood, and spiritual growth, Dee Dee discovered a deeper relationship with God that ultimately inspired her to share her testimony with others.
Today, Dee Dee and Andy live gratefully in Granbury, Texas, where they continue to grow in faith alongside their church community at The Heights Church.
In addition to My Shattered Life, Dee Dee has contributed to another book, Memories & Revelations, a collection of stories, Mom’s Legacy–Rich or Poor, published in 2025. She is also preparing for future works.
My Shattered Life stands as a beacon of hope for anyone searching for strength in the midst of suffering and proof that faith can carry people through even the most shattered moments of life.
