Lost Time, Bad Dreams and Miracles

Even as a toddler, AnnieMae, renamed Bernie in the book, knew she was not like other children. Whether they were older or younger, those others had rules and were appropriately punished if they ignored them. AnnieMae had no rules and no punishments. She also had no confidant, parent, teacher or friend who explained why she was so singled out. Unfortunately, that blurring of boundaries left her unprotected from a range of difficult, painfully dangerous situations, some clearly remembered, others submerged in the murky darkness of blank spaces.
Writing this book required investigating those gaps and finally discovering who she was, and why. It was an incredible journey, filled with amazing accomplishments, that needed telling in case there are readers who have similar difficulties and need encouragement to find the miracles scattered through their own lives.
