New Book: Push, Then Breathe: Trauma, Triumph, and the Making of an American Doctor About the Book: From fond memories of growing up in her native Romania and the social changes of the communist regime of Nicolae Ceausescu to shocking captivity and abuse at the hands of her father in the United States, Dr. Kiprono details her eventual escape to freedom, independence, and success. Once free of her father, Dr. Kiprono's hard work, determination, and positivity allowed her to overcome circumstances that most people cannot imagine. Dr. Kiprono's message of hope and positivity to all women is that they are worthy, their goals matter, and the only limit on them are the ones they impose on themselves. As proof of this, Dr. Kiprono fulfilled her life-long dream of becoming a doctor and now specializes in high-risk pregnancies. She now shares the knowledge and wisdom she gained with the world and women—especially women who have felt the weight of evil and isolation. Her memoir and debut work will stun and inspire readers in equal measure.
