Reseña del editor

Kate D. Mahoney is a miracle and she wants you to know you are too, even if that’s not what you’d call it. The Misfit Miracle Girl: Candid Reflections is an inspirational, humorous and inviting collection of essays. 

Diagnosed with stage four germ cell ovarian cancer while on summer vacation, Kate’ s world changed overnight. Then there was her recovery from multi-system organ failure that doctors said could not explain medically. Kate’s story, as the title suggests, is a collection of candid reflections from her life before, during, and after a Vatican approved miracle. 

Kate shares, “I woke up from a coma to this declaration that I was a miracle. In everyone else’s eyes I was instantly the face of something bigger than myself and my immediate, human set of circumstances, like walking, talking or feeding myself were seemingly overlooked because I was labeled miracle girl." 

In her inspirational memoir, “The Misfit Miracle Girl: Candid Reflections” join Kate on the tumultuous, hilarious journey of personal transformation as she humanizes her experiences as patient, caregiver, and life as an often misplaced, misunderstood mis-fit miracle girl. 

Kate wants you to know that what you think, what you feel and who you are matters. You always have a voice.
