(Long Island, NY) Raised in a Long Island neighborhood riddled with drug wars, Patti Chiappa faced experiences no child should have to know: drug lords robbing her house in broad daylight, frequent terrorization while she and her brother were home alone, and having to rebuff the advances of a lewd man on her way to the school bus.

In addition to the frightening attacks she experienced daily, Patti also dealt with the cruel remarks of classmates about her weight.
In the midst of so much turmoil, Patti found solace in the close bond her family shared. But in high school that bond was shattered by a betrayal from within as the effects of living in fear caused her family to turn on each other. Beautiful Scars details the dramatic experience of one woman from the streets of New York to the hills of Georgia.
This amazing memoir will give you a greater understanding for people in remarkable circumstances. Join Patti Leudeman Chiappa as she chronicles the trials she overcame and the love she finally found. Find hope for yourself in the faith that sustained Patti throughout it all and gave her strength to see God’s goodness in her Beautiful Scars.
