That Changes Everything

This is a true story. For many years I had been told by members of my family that I should write a book. I was procrastinating. My typing skills left much to be desired and I didn't have a computer so I was not looking forward to starting the project by hand, writing it on paper.I was still going through recovery from Ovarian Cancer when my youngest son thought perhaps it was time I did it. That Christmas, he bought me an old little portable IBM. It was DOS, one colour font on a tiny nine-inch screen. Yes, it was a long time ago and our other son still has it in storage. I was so touched by the fact that he cared so much that I should write the book he would pay the price for this gift. He taught me how to use it and the book was on its way.
