My two memoirs: Two Decades Of Diapers, and, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: The Teen Years, describe the challenges, hopes, and broken dreams I faced while struggling to maintain our family unit. I decided to share my story in the hope of supporting all individuals with FAS, their caregivers, support workers, and advocates, and to educate the public on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. Born in Portsmouth, England, I immigrated to Canada in 1974 and currently live in Hamilton, Ontario. I also write fiction, including two series: Under The Shanklin Sky, and, I, Gossip. Writing fiction could not be more different from writing memoir. Memoir can be painful to pen, but writing fiction brings me joy. I hope reading my books will bring you joy too!view less
