We All Need More Hope!

One year, a friend who couldn't drive asked Judy if she would take her to a writing class. She was glad to, and because of the location and since it was only one hour, she decided to go into the class and wait for her friend. She ended up writing. But at that time, she wasn't writing Hope in Hard Times — in fact, she was experiencing it.
At 65, most people retire. That's when Judy Dunn Palmer started writing this book. During the Covid quarantine, she finished her book, Hope in Hard Times, a story sharing how faith and persistence in prayer helped overcome the crippling pain of arthritis.
Nothing keeps her down. In 1976, she was inoculated with the Swine Flu vaccine which resulted in her paralysis for 6 years. After that, she went on to graduate from Pennsylvania State University, majoring in Journalism and in Medical Anthropology.
At 48, she married George Palmer and retired from office work. Instead, she homeschooled their youngest son, Paul. (All his siblings were out of school.) After Paul graduated, she retired from teaching, she thought. Until this person needed help, and then that person. Well, you know how it goes.
Now, in her retirement, Palmer tutors and writes in her spare time.
