Beth L. fought for her survival, and yet as parts of her brain were amputated she continued to fight against all odds, only to discover that her inability to see the world, to see reality as we did, would make her so much more proficient than the rest of us could ever imagine. Her perception would change ours and teach us that life is what you make it, not what you expect it to be.

Diane sought out retribution in life. Abandoned, abused and neglected, she managed to find her place in the world. But no matter how hard she tried to belong, someone would always piss her off; her awakening into life would always require the taking of someone else's life, mostly men. Their death was the awakening of her carnal desires and the more she satisfied those needs the more she wanted. Her murderous routine became an art form and the release of the burning sensation she carried would grow and need to be replenished frequently.

We are told that death is part of life. We are told that we should respect the journey and hope that there is a reward for a life well lived. We are told that there is a Heaven which follows death, and that the deceased will find eternal peace. We are told all sorts of things in order to help us cope with grief, loss and even loneliness. We are told that one day we will find our loved ones again and all will be well. And perhaps many of us believe that because we have never given it a second thought or perhaps because those so called experts have convinced us how we should feel and what we should believe. I for one had never thought about death until the loss of my Mother. It was sudden and unexpected, and I was unprepared for what was to follow; the shock, the loneliness, the feelings of abandonment, the uncertainty, the pain, the anger, all of it hit me like a ton of bricks.I'm old enough to have comprehended what had happened, I should have understood, but I couldn't and perhaps never will. So this daughters' memoir was written initially as a way to self-medicate, and later in the hopes of helping others who are grieving the loss of a loved one.
