If I were able to give this book 100 stars i would. I promise you there is not one page boring or uninteresting. Although i must warn you this book is not for the faint of heart. I found this true story so heart breaking yet so uplifting. I loved this woman and her family. She is one strong and tough woman. I have no doubt that i would have crumbled within a month, she lasted years from bad to worse. But always helped others to get by. While reading this i kept asking myself "why" this had to be the way it was with her judgement so harsh and her placements so terrible. After i finished the book, i thought about it for a few nights, i came to realize as she did, God placed her in these places and she helped so many that without her would not of made it, and some did not make it even with her. She spread care, her heart, sharing, and warmth, all that she had, where ever she was and i will not forget her. I wish her absolute love from God, she has earned it and hope she will someday write more books,i loved her voice. I listened. Guess that means she is still reaching people and teaching. :)
