My Mad Mother: Mother is everything there is to a child.

Mother Lode - Paperback
Oh no, not another memoir/biography about childhood family poliitics, mental and physical abuse. Yawn. Well my story of course is somewhat different. Subtle it's my journey growing up voiceless until 8 years old and being treated as a brainless dummy.
My family finally had my physical impairment surgically corrected, circumciseed and changed my name. All that and they didn't want to hear what I had Read more of this blog post »

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

Hola C.J.,Reading through Reflections of Mamie, you will not only feel and care, but marvel at the authors persistence in overcoming many diabolical emotianal hurdles and physical barriers that blocked her into adulthood. But she never gave up. It is an enlightening paradox of a woman's love. Not enjoyable reading, despite some humorous lines, but truly insightful with a triumphant wrap-up.

My warmest regards and respect,
CJ
