Eight years later, she's still largely bedridden with severe chronic vertigo, a widow, and the author of Singing Through Fire — an Amazon #1 bestseller she wrote flat on her back in six months. Her story includes a love story with a man facing terminal cancer, a wedding with a chemo pump in the room, and a faith that has been tested, broken, rebuilt, and tested again. For anyone in the chronic illness community wrestling with God, suffering, and the question of why this one is for you.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS&nbsp; 00:00 The Journey of Pain and Purpose 10:09 Finding Joy in Grief 20:03 Surrendering to Suffering 27:37 Community and Connection in Chronic Illness CONNECT &amp; RESOURCES 📚 Book &amp; Audiobook: Singing Through Fire — available on Amazon 🎙️ Podcast: Singing Through Fire — on YouTube ( The Silverman Show ) 📱 Instagram: @larapalanjian (maiden name) 📺 YouTube: The Silverman Show &nbsp; The Chronic Truth Podcast: &nbsp; 🌐 Website: chronictruthpodcast.com 📱 Instagram: @ChronicTruthPodcast 📘 TikTok: @chronictruthpodcast 💬 Share Your Story: Testimonials 📋 Community Survey: Survey Production Partner: Podcast Mechanic","meta_description":"Lara Silverman was two weeks into her dream job as a federal prosecutor when a rare neurological condition turned her world literally upside down.
