Daniel, I am always awed by the love you and your sweet wife shared. You are a remarkable man, my friend. Many people who grow up in a home like yours have trouble being affectionate and aren't always willing to be different.

But you were willing to allow yourself to give and receive love in more ways than you were shown.

This was a beautiful gift to your beloved Gabrielle and also to yourself.

Thank you for sharing this story, Daniel, and a huge "thank you" for your kind mention and for sharing my story about music! What a lovely surprise this morning! A precious gift - and I am deeply grateful!

I'm looking forward to reading your book about Gabrielle, and if you need any help, I'm here. I have software that properly formats books and gives them all the pretty extra bits, like table of contents and introduction, acknowledgements, etc. plus it offers various options for style, e.g. chapter headings etc.

It also produces several formats for digital files as well as producing a print format for Amazon or other book printers.

If I can help you in any way at all to get that book out of your head and heart and into print, let me know. 💜
