About this ebook
My life can best be described as a series of odysseys, beginning in the colonial period, in Jamaica, a tiny island in the Carribean Sea, extending to Great Britain and currently settling in the United States of America. For these journeys, my role evolved from that of a frightened, naive youngster, to an independent young adult, an abused wife, a mother, a nurse, and a divorcee to that of a senior citizen living in Athens, Georgia. I am now 'at full bloom', remembering all the stages and absolutely enjoying this stage with the utmost contentment.
About the author
Kathleen was born in Jamaica in 1945. After high school, she went to England to do nursing and to the USA for her BSN and M.Ed. Her experience of motherhood, marriage, emotional abuse, emigration, relocation after Hurricane Katrina, divorce, retirement and senior citizenship prompted her to write this cathartic memoir.
