About the Author

The Devil must have known I would be a disturber of his kingdom because of all the opposition I received in my life from nearly dying twenty two times to being stricken with two kinds of schizophrenia of which I have triumphed over due to my faith. My family was discouraged from being part of my life but I kept my self busy in spite of my illness writing books singing and song writing. Going back to my childhood I almost drowned when I was a toddler, when I was eight year old I was almost smothered to death when my underground fort caved in around me and my father saved me. After that there were twenty attempts on my life and God was there to save me he had just each time. I could feel his loving presence many times and hear his voice saying he had just saved my life. Sometime adversity can weaken a spiritual person if they do not have their heart set on the things of God and sometimes he tests us to see if we will prove ourselves if we will do all things he asks of us. Knowing he wanted me to write my experiences soon adversity arose. I had to go thru divorces and being put in a nursing home falsely because the medication was toxic to me. I spent twenty years on a medication which didn’t stop my symptoms and was covered up in favor of the manufacturer and bonuses at the VA because it was widely utilized. This led to divorces due to my paranoia. What Joy I felt as I was given the right medication and also healed from the paranoia thru my faith in Christ. I was born in Seattle WA in 1949 and grew up there in the same home my parents lived in for all their married life unlike myself who moved a lot of times. I was gifted with my hands and learned to build at an early age, I could build a motor bike and a boat and trailer or a house by the time I was in high school because of my creativity. My creativity allowed me to design and build several houses. I developed my education into a Bachelors of Science equivalent and became a Design Engineer and manager for Northrop, Los Angeles CA. My song writing ability took off later in my life and started to develop my own song over 20 years and still want to publish some for the 120 of them to marketable CD’s. I included them in my books though while living in our spacious country home in La Vernia TX. After becoming disabled in 1993 I spent a lot of time attending group at the South Texas VA Health Center for treatment not and found a doctor that finally believed in me and got me the right medication which was aided by the Lord and a miracle no longer suffering from paranoia due to my blessing from the Lord. There was thought to be no cure for schizophrenia and I was so happy that I had paranoia no more. I also contact prostate cancer which the prostate was removed completely with a 30% chance that it would return again. But after the surgery when I was in great pain so much that the morphine wasn’t enough the Lord came to me and touched me and healed me I knew he was there because of his greater overwhelming feeling of love which I felt at the time. The results I have been cancer free with no chance of it returning for 7 years. I had never felt such pure love as strong as I did that day which took away my pain and brought me peace and comfort but it made me feel weak when he was gone. I lost my mother at 91 years old a few years later and he had led a good life a righteous life and went to meat her God and friend I will publish her family History and genealogy work and give it to my children to bring them close to me. I have filled three missions for my church and served in the priesthood for most of my life and later in my life as a High Priest in the Church of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints. I have baptized my five children, many friends into the church giving me much Joy and happiness. Somehow thru my poor example of anger while my children were living with me caused them to be victims estranged to me later in life. Some things you just can’t take back and undue even with great faith because you can’t take their agency from them to choose for themselves and I repent and I’m greatly sorry and hope my book will reach their hearts some day and they will return to me. My life is full now and the Lord is with me in my decisions as an Author of four books singer and song writer as well as my marriage and being a disabled veteran I also serve in the priesthood.
