This book was written to inspire hope and to begin healing for those experiencing adversity or who have wounds to heal. I hope that my words help you gain perspective on the past and avoid the mistakes I’ve made as you go forward on your journey. I now view every single experience as positive because adversity brought me here—to this place where I can help you heal your life. This book is dedicated to:
• Rape victims—When they tell you it wasn’t your fault, it is true! No matter what choices you made, the instant the word “no” crossed your lips, all should have stopped. Whatever happened after that was not your fault.
• Those suffering from depression and/or PTSD—As a society, we need to do more to remove the stigma of psychological illness so that more people will seek the help they need, before the situation becomes desperate.
• All fibromyalgia patients—We must continue to advocate for a cure and not settle for lifelong symptom management. When we put our voices together, there is nothing we cannot accomplish.
• Those who want a change in their life—Whether it’s a divorce, an illness, or any other issue that has you feeling “less than,” you can change your circumstances.
• Anyone who has had, or is having, thoughts of suicide—Know that suicide not the answer. I am an example of that. If I’d not seen that “dark place” and lived to talk about it, I wouldn’t be writing this for you today. I would never have known life could be this incredible.
Bridgette C. Kent wrote the beginning of Fallen Angel Rising while going through darker days than she had ever imagined possible. As she wrote, she often felt no hope of overcoming the obstacles being thrown in her path. As she struggled with severe depression, stigma, chronic illness, loss of mobility, the loss of her home and more, Bridgette didn't know if she would ever find her way out.
Having been blessed with "the perfect family," and what many considered "the perfect life," Bridgette seemed to have it all. To those who knew her, Bridgette was a bubbly, outgoing overachiever. She began performing in water-ski shows at six years-old, won her first water-ski championship at 11, played many school sports, and stared in her high school theater and musical productions. Bridgette went on to excel in a number of different careers never stopping long enough for doubt to sneak in. The one place she didn't excel was relationships, but that didn't bother her all that much.
In 2008, at 37 years-old, Bridgette seemed to have it all. Having been divorced for 9 years, she was now a fit firefighter and EMT, driving her dream car, living in what she called her "Fairytale Cottage," and she had just started what she thought was the "perfect job" for her. She was a 911 dispatcher. With an active social life, Bridgette wasn't worried about finding "the one." She was too busy enjoying what she had. Then, the train began to derail.
Bridgette spent much of 2008 trying to ignore the signs of clinical depression. As an EMT, she'd always been judgmental of those with mental illness. She was sure there was another explanation for her sudden need to sleep all the time. It had to be the new work schedule. As time went on, Bridgette became even more frustrated with herself. Why couldn't she get more done? Why did she feel sad? Why couldn't she just "change her thoughts," as she'd always suggested others do? She began to pile self-loathing and judgment onto her already damaged psyche. Late in the year, Bridgette sought out a psychologist, and finally started on anti-depressants. It was too little too late. On December 7, 2008, Bridgette attempted to end her life. She would have succeeded if not for the miracle known as "Mother's Intuition."
For the next few years, life would only get harder. After her attempt, Bridgette battled the stigma of that suicide attempt, was harassed out of her job, diagnosed with a chronic illness, became home-bound, and lost her "Fairytale Cottage." Forced to move in with her brother, Bridgette saw no hope for a future.
After living with her brother for just a few months, Bridgette realized that she no longer wanted to live as a victim. She remembered some books she'd read years earlier by Dr. Wayne Dyer, Alan Cohen and others. These books all taught a principle called the Law of Attraction. Knowing the power of these teachings, Bridgette picked them up again. As Bridgette began to heal, she reflected on the things she'd written during her dark days, and decided to keep writing. Fallen Angel Rising began to emerge, so did Bridgette. The writing had served to show her the past in ways she'd never seen before. She identified patterns and beliefs that she'd never been consciously aware of, and began to heal. As we heal our past and our inside, the outside healing begins as well.
Today, Bridgette is no longer home-bound. She walks without a cane, and leads a full and active life as an author and motivational speaker. She is a member of two Toastmasters International Clubs, works with the National Speakers Association, is a member of the Wisconsin Council on Mental Illness, and advocates for those with both mental illness and chronic illness. Bridgette is living proof that all things can be overcome. There is no adversity that is greater that our own desire to give back.

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;

on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
