Publisher's Synopsis
At an age when I should have been comfortably nearing retirement and able to focus on myself, if not for myself and my many mishaps, I was lead to the worst trauma in my life! My story... Herstory...needs to be told predominantly for two reasons: the first and foremost reason is for my own therapy and healing as I venture into the more "formidable" years of my life; the second is so that I can enrich others who may see similarities between my life and theirs, and so that they can know (and be empowered by the fact) that there is hope...beyond what seems to be a life filled with despair.
What brought this about was the constant hounding, if you will, of my conscience to tell about those things that even I said were incredibly shocking and unbelievable. You know that feeling of "I should write a book about this." Such traumatic life events, leading to more recent occurrences, that challenged me to search the depths of my soul, and to rekindle a closer and better relationship with God, thereby seeking much needed answers as to why I found myself within such adversity too many times in my life. There is always a need to cleanse one's soul, a kind of precursor to making oneself right with God, before meeting God.
