Suddenly Silent and Still - Paperback

by Nin Mok (Author)

Finding joy and meaning through illness: a memoir

In a life-changing instant, Nin is thrown into chaos by the onset of sudden hearing loss and violent vertigo. As a project management executive specialising in planning and control, she grapples with the randomness of her condition and the uncertainty of recovery.

Fuelled by love for her children, she fights to reclaim her life in a silent and still world, navigating grief, loss and medical trauma. Nin's abrupt transition from an ambitious career woman to a stay-at-home parent sparks profound introspection.

Is security merely an illusion? What determines a person's worth? How can you accept a worse reality? Through her journey, she discovers new perspectives and an infallible purpose in a less-abled body.

With honesty and humour, she offers hope to those facing loss, chronic illness and disability. Grounded yet uplifting, this inspiring true story shows how the resilience of the human spirit can prevail in the face of suffering.
