With a promise to her parents to return in three years, Lilieth left her home in sunny Jamaica for the damp shores of England to continue her education in nursing in 1961. In 1984, Lilieth finally graduated with a degree in nursing. She never saw her father alive again and saw her mother only once before her death in 1967.

From the Caribbean to Europe, Canada, and the United States, Lilieth’s determination to obtain her degree in nursing was a consuming passion that exacted a heavy toll on her.

A Nurse’s Incredible Journey of Faith is a memoir that will have you think not twice but numerous times before you attempt to throw in the towel. It epitomizes what it takes to achieve a dream in the face of great odds.
