No one does. Sure, she'd sometimes been close to gun violence, like when the house down the street from her childhood home in Texas was targeted in a drive-by shooting. But now she lived in Oregon, where she spent her time swimming in rivers with friends or attending classes at the bucolic Umpqua Community College.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd then, one day, it happened: a mass shooting shattered her college campus. Over the span of a few minutes, on October 1, 2015, eight students and a professor lost their lives. And suddenly, Kindra became a survivor. This empathetic and ultimately hopeful graphic memoir recounts Kindra's journey forward from those few minutes that changed everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt wasn't easy. Every time Kindra took a step toward peace and wholeness, a new mass shooting devastated her again. Las Vegas. Parkland. She was hopeless at times, feeling as if no one was listening. Not even at the worldwide demonstration March for Our Lives. But finally, Kindra learned that—for her—the path toward hope wound through art, helping others, and sharing her story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNumb to This\u003c\/em\u003e explores these themes with an honest and touching narrative, offering readers insight into the challenging path towards healing and the resilience of the human spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46995877822700,"sku":"9780316462099","price":34.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/18103993482300.jpg?v=1763120521"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/kindra-neely.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
