I was born in Youngstown in 1963.I was born with a liver condition at birth and nearly died.My parents support kept me alive. I have 4 brothers & 2 sisters. I went to Univ. and received honours in Communications. I moved to California in 1985, studied and joined the poetry circuit. My story was based on an actual event between my brother and I. It made us closer and helped us see the rythm of nature. So I want to spread that knowledge to others. My 1st daughter Swan was born in Santa Monica California and I have a Son Jeremiah, Jasmin, and Gabriel all to my Lovely wife Kathryn who I met in California and who I am now with in the UK. I plan on writing more stories for children that pass on a simple but important message for people of all ages to live by helping others and family bonds. I hope that you enjoy the Story and others to come. Thank you
