the book is a survivor’s anthem. It’s about Jessi’s struggle during the time she spent crawling through three decades of trauma and tragedy that claimed her life, and her journey trying to find her way to reclaim what was lost or stolen.

T he other day as I was doing my Librarian thing, I happened to stop and talk with a student here at the law school. Seems she was freezing. I mean, it was 47 degrees outside and what with her sitting about 20 feet from a door that opened from time to time, who could blame her for being chilled?
