Are you always waiting for the next bad thing to happen? Always on edge, watching for someone’s tone to shift, bracing for an impact that feels moments away even when nothing is actually wrong?

One question remained: What if I am next? So she began writing while her memory was still her own. Before the page went blank. What came out was not a neat timeline. Memory rarely works that way. It reached back to an unborn brother erased before he arrived, a childhood in Eastern Ukraine...

Trying to improve the interaction. Trying to create stability where none holds. This book follows that loop to its natural end. Not through advice. Not through strategies. But through direct observation of what actually happens over time.

In spite of a multitude of attempts by all those ascribed by Satan who would take me down, and my own trove of unwise decisions, I survived. God is good, and He saved a wretch like me for His ultimate plan and for His glory.
