Kevin would be alive today if he’d had the Gardasil vaccine as a pre-teen. Both our kids are vaccinated-our son was off-label as it wasn’t yet approved for boys and we knew it was effective. Vaccines work. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Thank you, Library Journal, for including I Can’t Remember if I Cried in your list of the top books of 2024! I’m thrilled to be listed with writers whose work I love and admire!
