A woman has penned a book detailing the horrifying incidents when she was struck by lightning, not once but twice.

Not only was Beth Peterson hit twice, but the second strike came one year to the day after the first - and only three miles away, according to KGAN, the CBS affiliate in Cedar Rapids.

Now Peterson has written a book, "Life After Lightning," which chronicles the highs and lows of her recovery.

She lost toes, had to relearn how to walk and read and write, and still feels electricity surging through her body, but says every day is now a blessing.
