My Dance with Op

Book excerpt: Do you believe in miracles? You will after reading La Donna Alfano's MY DANCE WITH OPA. Even though La Donna barely survived the tragic train/car accident that took the lives of her mother, identical twin and baby sister when she was five years old, she had an incredible out-of-body experience that gave her so much peace. She lived with different family members until her father remarried and La Donna's stepmother adopted her when she was eight years old. Her hell began. La Donna went through years of emotional, physical and sexual abuse and she eventually lost all faith in her angels, in God and in humanity. Her life started to plummet while getting into drugs and alcohol and looking for love in all the wrong places. The majority of her thirties were going through therapy trying to find happiness and finding her true self. While she was on the journey of finding her long-lost mother's family, one night she was awoken and driven to write a letter to UNSOLVED MYSTERIES. La Donna wanted to believe in her angels and in a higher power, but she needed proof. La Donna's grandfather, Opa, and her reunion was bittersweet, but their meeting was a wondrous spiritual dance that led her to a new life, a new awakening and a miraculous beginning. La Donna's heart wrenching narration will touch anyone who has ever suffered through heartbreak and /or abuse and gives proof that life can begin again and what's on the other side of healing is truly a miracle.
