I finally heard from a friend who let me know of three mistakes I made in the first few pages of my book.  Didn't anyone else notice?  1. In the table of contents I transposed the a and the u in guard, 2. and 3. came in the first paragraph on the first page of the first chapter.  
   When I was 12 years old my mom moved my two older brothers, one sister and me to Catskill, New York from my child home in Miami, Florida.  Six months before the

move I.....

I can't imagine how these errors got by the fine tooth comb my girls and I went through the book with, maybe we just didn't see those two pages because we hadn't expected the errors to come so soon, I don't know.  Please, please, please, let me know if you find others, I am thick skinned, I have had to be.  


So after I went back in, corrected the errors and put the whole thing in yet another PDF and sent it back to the publisher, my sister called me to say I have to change the book cover.  Seems she went to visit our mother who is so pathetic, she thought I had only been in Poughkeepsie for one week.  I guess she is getting senile.  Linda: "  Kathy, you can't put "  What kind of mother would allow this"  on the cover of your book for all the world to see.  How would you feel if someone did that to you?  And anyway, I have a real bad feeling about it, I think God is telling me to tell you to honor your mother."    Funny, just last night I heard Dr. Phil tell a pedophile, preacher he couldn't use that scripture verse on his daughter whom he had molested as a child, because he was no kind of father.  Well, the closest person I had to a mother was this same sister, so against my will, I will honor her by changing the book cover and my You tube video.


Now, one may think that this is bitterness, no this is a new anger.  I stopped talking to my mother when my brother told me that when he came home from the hospital, this last time, to die, they got into an argument and she said, "  Oh, why don't you drop dead already?"   Well he is going to soon enough, just not soon enough for her.  What a hateful thing to say to someone knowing they are on borrowed time, but to your own son?  He must have repeated that incident at least 5 times in two days, he just couldn't get over it.  


You who know my brother and his problem, may say he brought this on himself, no, not this time.  What is killing him is the result of the chemo he had to endure for the non-existent cancer he didn't have. It was only after they opened him up did they find he never had cancer but the chemo destroyed some very vital organs.  The doctors said there was nothing they could do for him, just make his last days as comfortable as possible, and then they sent him home.  

When he told Linda and I this, we got our heads together and told him he needed to go where he is really wanted, with my other brother.  I made the arrangements, Linda got the tickets and drove him to the airport and Rick picked him up and took him home to his place.  God is in his heavens and all is well with the world.

I know that when Linda sees this, she is going to call me and tell me I can't put this up for all the world to see, and I will obediently take it off, but for now, here it is for all the world to see:)
