I think writing about yourself is the hardest thing to do. Especially in written form. But sometimes we have a story to tell. Mine are the many healing miracles I have received throughout my life. Even cervical cancer. (Although there were a lot more, not all included in this first edition book, my intention is to do a revised version and include everything else I didn't put in this one.) I must admit it wasn't ready to be published. I needed to edit it and I had so much more to include. But because of the situation in my life at the time, I was in a location where I was not able to get internet - the signal was too weak to upload a book file. Especially not a large book file. But I wanted to get it printed - even if half finished - in time for my own birthday. Because once in a while we need to give gifts to ourselves. Nonetheless, it is full of amazing simple home remedies. And it is Christian Faith based as well.
