"Sometimes, even to live is an act of courage." -Lucius Annaeus SenecaAfter her final failed suicide attempt, Marie Scofield embraced her life, which inspired her to write. I Have a Fighter My Whole Life is an autobiographical account and her way of telling everyone how she fought to overcome every challenge and finally accepted change. By sharing her life's story, she is also able to raise awareness of how people who are deaf or hard of hearing can change the world and the future.Marie's inspiration to become an author was sparked in 2015 when she was in high school as a senior, and she watched a speech-deaf author publish her book. She was motivated to become an author one day, and her dream came true with her very first book. Marie also understands the plight of people driven to suicide and knows firsthand how harmful it can be for survivors, too. If she had succeeded in ending her life, she would not have had the chance to write and share her story with others.I Have a Fighter My Whole Life will resonate with others having tough times in their lives.
