Publisher's Synopsis

Weeks after giving birth, Holly Frances went from being a healthy 26-year-old new mom to paralyzed and on life support in less than 72 hours. Diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder called Guillain-Barré Syndrome, Holly was trapped in her body, unable to move, speak, or hold her newborn daughter. 'Life Support' tells the story of how Holly struggled to overcome the despair, hopelessness and physical pain, to regain her health and get back to being a mother to her daughter. This heart-wrenching memoir intertwines the 126 days Holly spent in hospital with her childhood, family life, and recovery.
