I Am the Daughter of God

This book follows my life from infancy through adulthood and details the significant people in my life. It also captures, I believe, what it is like to experience psychosis. Some of the symptoms include hallucinations, faulty judgment, and an extreme sensitivity to the environment, to name only a few. But it is also about hope and empathy. I survived the emotional instability, lung cancer, and a divorce.

Through it all, I had over twenty years of teaching. I founded a children's theater, and I had my writing as a part-time job. I taught in excellent public schools and one private school for severely emotionally challenged youngsters. I taught all levels from Head Start through adult. My last assignment, I worked with special needs students and supervised two aides in the same excellent system for over ten years.

I have included samples of some of my writings so the reader would get to understand me even better.

Today I am experiencing a well-deserved retirement. I do not consider writing "work" but rather something I enjoy, and I look back on my life and feel the strength that comes from survival!
