Is She Dead Yet? by Author Lawanna Lynn Campbell

The Story of How a Woman Struggled to Escape Domestic Violence and Start a New Life Real-life Story Helps Women Break Free from Domestic Violence

MEDFORD, N.Y. – In Is She Dead Yet? The Story of How a Woman Struggled to Escape Domestic Violence and Build a New Life (published by AuthorHouse), author Lawanna Lynn Campbell provides a first-person account of living with domestic violence. She tells of a marriage filled with abuse, infidelity
and drug and alcohol abuse. This new memoir follows Campbell through her escape and includes tools and resources that other women can use to break the cycle of abuse.

Growing up with an alcoholic parent, Campbell walked on eggshells and learned to be submissive and codependent, seeking comfort and solace in Christianity and marrying at an early age. On the outside, Campbell and her husband were the perfect couple. But for nearly 23 years, she secretly endured domestic violence at the hands of her husband, who was also a business owner and church leader. Is She Dead Yet? describes the roller coaster ride of intense and violent episodes of abuse, followed by
periods of normalcy. Campbell narrates how she moved in and out of the family home as she struggled to cope with her husband’s extramarital affairs, drug and alcohol use and financial ruin. Learn what she did right, what she did wrong, the warning signs of domestic abuse and the five deadly marriage dealbreakers. Walk with her as she takes matters into her own hands and gets the legal, therapeutic and spiritual help needed to make a new life for herself.

This poignant, true story takes readers on a journey from the pulpit to the prison cell as Campbell strives to free herself from a life of pain, shame and guilt. Find out if she keeps the faith, or if she turns away from God as she faces her most devastating challenge of all.
