I am a sixty-two-year-old grandmother of eleven and great-grandmother of four. In my middle fifties my husband became ill with Alzheimeras and I was the only care-giver. We became socially isolated from family and friends, along with being financially strapped. I was care-giving all the time and believe me, a person can get real tired of watching television and reading in-between all the work. So I decided to look for a creative outlet. I always enjoyed writing, which came in the form of college essays, personal experiences, dream logs, self-awareness and self-discovery classes. For me it seemed natural to start writing short stories for my grandchildren. It was easy to slip into the mind set of creativity because of regular meditation. I donat mind telling you, it was a great place to escape to when the harsh realities of life pressed in around me. My husband has since passed on, but I have continued writing stories for other family members and friends. Maybe this book can be an inspiration to others on what can be achieved when we are at our lowest and most desperate. To know we are able to take our positive creative energy and put it in the form of most any artistic endeavor, thus bringing out some of our hidden talent. Iam hoping this book will be of great encouragement to other people in similar circumstances.
