Summary
I am 59, quadriplegic with a strong family network: my husband John, two daughters Joanna and Charlotte (whose personal poems appear in this book) and not forgetting my parents who have done their utmost to assist me in the compilation of my poetry. I had to use voice activated software to dictate directly into my computer to enable them to compile the poems. One of my carers found out that the baby she was carrying had a potentially life-threatening condition. Thankfully she survived and the carer subsequently visited me several times so I could see the baby, and this inspired me to donate all the proceeds from the sales of my first book to a charity very dear to my heart.
