Author twice-survived from a car wrecks shares her journey of pain, devastation and strong faith in God
Living Through Pain by Nina T. Elliott, EdD, ThD
Nina Elliott’s, “Living Through Pain” is a searing tale of tragedy, survival, and spirituality that is truly a reflection of the saying that goes: faith can move mountains.
Nina is your average American driving according to the rules of the road, when she was violently rear-ended, resulting into injuries and brain swelling that incapacitated her physically. Her initial reaction after the jolt was complete incoherence, unaware of the extent of her injuries, until she moved to unbuckle herself, then stopped when the excruciating pain rendered her immobile.
She vaguely remembers being transported into an ambulance, her concern more about the state of the vehicle and where it’s left behind.
From here she was constantly floating in and out of consciousness, aware that life goes on, but she isn’t an active participant anymore, hindered by her condition and medication. When she had began getting better, she was involved in another car accident, crushing her already-wilting spirit.
Her feelings of devastation, the inability to surmount her pain, and the struggle to manage her life swallowed her fully so that she briefly surrendered to despair. Yet, despite her tangible helplessness, Nina Elliott always raised her head to the words of God. When she lifts up her pain and sorrow, she sees God’s hands, helping her cope. When she whispers her words of frustration, she feels his His presence, leaning in to listen “Living Through Pain” is Nina Elliott’s personal testimony of how God sees our pain and responds lovingly and compassionately. In her near-decade endurance of suffering through various illnesses, God never failed to listen to her, and He was her anchor of faith.Nina Elliott retired as Associate Provost of Academic Affairs from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
She holds an EdD degree in Educational Psychology and a Th.D. degree in theology.
