A Change in the Flight Plan

A Change in the Flight Plan by Paul Lanier. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781424314683.

What a difference a few hours can make. One morning the author and his family were enjoying a beautiful Florida beach, but that afternoon, he found himself telling his wife that he had a fatal disease and would suffer immensely until his death. Paul Lanier knows firsthand the difference a few hours can make. In July 1998, he was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also know as Lou Gehrigs Disease. Less than twenty percent of ALS patients live five years from the time they were diagnosed, and most who do are significantly paralyzed. He wrote this book in that condition. A Change In The Flight Plan offers a biblical and inspirational view of suffering from a middle-aged, dying mans perspective. Because of his struggles, the authors words are authentic and highly credible. In this book, he shares the very Bible verses and ideas that have saved him from despair. If you are hurting or know someone who is, you will certainly find a fountain of hope within these pages.
