Publisher's Synopsis
"The book that was never going to be written is here! Yvonne Nicolas has finally released her memoir. Two books that were never going be written and when they were written, they were never going to be published. Yet today more than a decade later they are published as one. Making Sense of Life Before We LEve Those Were The Days is a vehicle for a much higher purpose... a catalyst for universal change in the way we deal with mental health issues, says its author, Yvonne Nicolas. Yvonne is a firm believer in signs, dreams and higher forces that have guided her life and firmly believes that we need to shift the way in which we deal with health issues generally, but particularly in mental health. Yvonne Nicolas the Queen of Adelaide, her acquired title while reigning overSouth Australias fortunes reveals for the first time what everyone wants to know... thetrue story on how Adelaide won and lost the Grand Prix... and the stories behind thestories that made front page News. Stories from Adelaide... across the Nation... tothe World Stage! It requires a collective and collaborative effort by many trained and volunteer workers across many sectors of the allied and medical health industries. It is what is referred to as a village approach, she says. We want to set up Sanctuaries where people of all ages, race and religion can go to receive the help they need; to be cared for in a gentle, loving environment... a place where they will feel safe and properly cared for regardless of their financial circumstances and not to be committed into a mental institution. This is a shared vision that Yvonne has with many friends, colleagues, world healers and enlightened leaders."
