My name is Fran and I am pleased to know you through your writings and thank you
for the personal hand-written note inside it.

    Actually other than the sexual abuse, I was also orphaned at the age of seven. 
Thank you for the opportunity to write to you …

The emotional upheaval that occurs with loss of family, equals abandonment either by death or living parents is a loss of ones soul.

Your book will remain the best Mothers Day gift I have ever had.  Knowing you through your writings is the other.     Fran
