    Hi Everyone, I’m a Mom and the author of “The Four Walls of My Freedom” (McArthur and Co., 2010) – available on Amazon everywhere. From some reviews: “A clear-eyed look at the value of a life…What if a life was judged not by its monetary worth or possible economic benefit to society, but as a series of complex and rewarding relationships?” …[Read more]

    I’m only 1/2 way done! Before I comment on which one (or three) spoke to me I want to say, like you, I had to rewrap my brain around the fact that we were reading such a mixture…I hope to finish this weekend (I read terribly slow because I read in 10 page spurts. I [...]

    Just opening this up so we can start discussing the book. I’m 1/2 done and hope to finish this week (am on vacation by myself…so I have to!). I am loving going in and out of different writings, I have to say. I love too, that there’s such diversity (in styles, stories, etc). No pressure! [...]

    Thanks so much for choosing LOVE YOU TO PIECES. Obviously, I love these stories, essays and poems. I included works which I found bolstering and/or comforting. I look forward to hearing your reactions here!

    Thanks Siobhan, I think we’ll have a few! So yes! I’m taking you up on your offer (that’s why this is a perfect book – we can each pick one essay/story/poem that speaks to us!

    Marisa…it’s so easy! When the time comes I’ll help you. But all you do it go to “Forum” in this group and hit “New Topic” and that’s it! Then people reply to it just like you did! Can you DM me on Twitter your address and I’ll have the book sent directly to you! Yay!

    I completely understand…because, let’s face it, the kids health surrounds everything we do. As far as lessons, well, a lot of it we just make up as we go along.

    I kind of feel weird saying that I loved this post since so much of it was about your kids fragile health … but I did. A lot of people could take lessons from you guys.
