Born a military daughter Dee Ann Johnson Woodrum began life just as any other child with excitement and a smile. Not long after she reached the age of two she got a case of the croup that left her fighting for her life. With a strong faith in God her parents got on their knees and asked God to spare her life. They were told by human physicians she'd never walk or talk again, but the Great Physician had different plans. Dee did learn to walk and talk again and writes words of encouragement with that same excitement and smile.
