A Bit About the Author
I am a mom of 4, a loving wife, and an unsuspecting author of a true medical drama/unconventional love story. I wrote therapeutically as I was introduced to/initiated into life as a special needs mother. Years later I was convinced to share my tale. All names were changed in the book, but the story is 100% true.
