The Weakness I Turned Into Strength

In 'The weakness I turned into strength', a memoir of the author's experiences at Toronto Western during the darkest times of the Covid-19 pandemic, Sonia Sharda tells the story of the horrors she endured at the hands of medical professionals after suffering a mysterious seizure. However, Sharda's book is more than just an account of her trauma; it is also a moving and heartfelt tribute to the power of family, friends, and the human spirit, even in the worst circumstances. A half-Indian, raised in an extended Italian family and growing up in diverse neighborhoods in the Toronto area, Sharda's is a coming-of-age story that transforms into an urgent call to action against hospital abuse and a message of hope for fellow survivors.
