Produktbeschreibung
Rosemary was my confidant, my teacher, my true love. I was her last student, her caretaker, her strength. This book was written to help me remember my past upon coming out of a coma four years ago and dealing with the debilitating West Nile virus I had contracted after Rosemary had gone. Once you finish reading about our journey through life and experiencing happiness as well as hardships, I hope that you value what I have come to understand. With the help of family and friends, you can overcome anything. Rosemary had dreams. Some of those beautiful dreams she strived to make a reality on her own. Her other dreams she enlisted the help of others to make come true. My friends in the Lions Club urged me to write a book about my life. At first I would record my thoughts, and my friend would try to put them to paper; however, my thoughts would wander and were often incoherent. Through sharing my experiences and looking over photo albums, my mind and memory returned, resulting in this book about my life, my Rosemary, my confidant that I now share with you.

Autorenporträt
I'm 62, a widower who was married three times with one beautiful daughter who is all grown up now. I finally found real love with my last wife and confidant. Times weren't always easy but our love kept us strong. I was an under-educated factory worker and she was a teacher involved with the theatre. She helped me to become a better man through introduction to her family. fine arts, and continued education. She taught me to read after discovering I was dyslexic, while urging me to become a tradesman and to become involved in community service through Lions Clubs International. I'm an artist but also a General Contractor by occupation. I have been a Lion for 25 years and eventually rose to the position of District Governor. I cared for my last wife for 23 years and after her passing I came down with West Nile Virus which nearly killed me. While recuperating from the virus that left my mind scrambled and fighting to eventually walk again with a cane, my dear friend John and I decided I should write a book about my life to help my mind recover. A daunting task, we reached out to his 14 year old daughter, Isabelle, for help. She became impassioned about the book from the beginning and took on the role of Ghostwriter. I could not have done it without her. After giving up many weekends and quite a number of weeknights, holidays, and my setbacks in health, we finished the book three years later. Full of laughter and tears, I hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed writing it.
