DEEDS OF TRUST

by co-founder, alesandra rain

Is there a limit to the amount of loss one person can survive? Is there a point from which the human spirit cannot return? Alesandra Rain unequivocally argues that we have reservoirs of strength that are only tapped in our darkest hours.

An auto accident early in life left her body shattered, and after nearly two-dozen surgeries, Alesandra built a rich life full of material success. But it was at the height of her career that she began a downward spiral that would leave her world shattered.

In her mid-thirties Alesandra met a man, fell deeply in love and within two years both married and opened a new business with him. While she worked to build a new life and company, her husband was daily slipping poison into her coffee and plotting to steal her personal and corporate wealth. As her health deteriorated, the money began to disappear. Within two years she was bankrupt, suffering seizures and left destitute. Her husband moved on to his next prey and Alesandra was left on a multitude of medications to treat the symptoms as the poison was misdiagnosed.

Eventually the poison was discovered and a series of treatments were implemented to free her body. However, just as she was beginning to rebuild what she had lost, the legal ramifications related to the collapse of the company surfaced. It left a wake of destruction drawing Alesandra into legal proceedings as a partner in a crime she didn't know was being committed. She was subsequently convicted of that crime and once again, left devastated.

Over the next decade Alesandra's health declined, leading to another ten operations on her spine. She became permanently disabled and addicted to a cocktail of sleeping pills, antidepressants and pain killers, living her life in a haze of addiction, afraid to reach for the world again.

Yet there was a thread to life that would not sever, and it was through the compassion of others that she reached to not only break the bonds of addiction, but also become an inspiration to millions. Her story has impassioned people from all walks of life. It transforms the separation of gender, age and racial lines into a unified voice - all seeking a journey back to life.

DEEDS OF TRUST is a compelling chronicle of betrayal, loss and the overwhelming strength of the human spirit. Alesandra Rain captures her riveting true story of deception and intrigue while putting a face on a worldwide issue.
