Earth-shattering events can and do happen. A relationship ends, a loved one dies, we may lose a job, our health, hopefully not all our marbles. Picking up the Pieces is one woman's story of a compound loss that becomes a second chance. It is her journey from heartbreak to healing; caretaking to autonomy; and cyberdating to new love. Her challenges are not unlike those many endure. However, her alternate view and mystical perspective as a healer with intuitive gifts, is unique. In the blink of an eye, an old way of life can vanish forever. And yet as the old world is crumbling, a new and possibly greater world is forming just out of view-though some assembly may be required.
