Read MoreDear Gitta, This morning I just finished your book The Healing Wound, and it was excellent. I could sense that your relationship with your Don was exemplary, a true life partnership.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Don. I was able to communicate one time with him by email a few years ago. He and my father were in the same unit in the South Pacific.

Blessings
