Book 1(Abused Child):
Synopsis: The suffering of this child began at the age of four and continued off and on through adulthood until he reached the age of forty-nine. From an intense burning on his right leg at the tender age of four, through false accusations and beatings, through sexual abuse still as a child, to more beatings and torture as a young adult. Later in life, from the age of forty-one to the age of forty-nine, he suffered what he had suffered as a child, false accusations again and attempted intimidation.
What would forty-five years of abuse bring on to first a child and then an adult? Stuttering, schizophrenia and finally weakness, not physical but rather emotional, evidenced by a continual fear of interaction with everybody.
Such is the work you are about to read.
Book 2(Dear Marc):
Synopsis: Dear Marc A Collection of Miracles was not something I had been thinking about writing. One day just before I was to lead the Rosary, my good friend Benoit mentioned that his brother Marc, was a confirmed Atheist. What brought this topic up I don't recall. I was, however, deeply moved by Ben's remark and decided to do something about it. I felt confident that if I were to reveal some of the miracles that had happened in my life then I couldn't see how anyone could deny the existence of a Supreme Being. I wrote a very short tale of several of the miracles that I had experienced. I then had it printed and made several copies. I gave one to Benoit to give to Marc and gave the others to the Parishioners.
