The ‘core idea’ of this tale comes from Shawn Farrar. His premises, dealing mainly with the ethics of organ donation and transplants sparked a domino effect of ‘what if’ questions. Shawn’s basic Idea of The Cure for everything, and the creative embellishing’s of that worldview spurred my own personal creativeness. He gets the lion’s share of acknowledgements, and huge thank you!
Thanks to my daughter, Elizabeth R Garza for her view on consistency, realism, and concept for the cover art. Many thanks to Damon Terrell and Jason Prather; with their detailed eye on story-proofing and making things more readable for others. Brilliant thanks to Marjorie Jo Chesebro as a resource in Mental Health and proofing my story’s early incarnation; for the courage to put my demons in print. And finally, I would like to thank my dearest of friends, Mike Cope who never stopped pushing, encouraging and believing in the tenacity of my efforts to accomplish the massive task I set before myself.
My inexpressible and deepest gratitude to everyone who helped me struggle against my own mental health issues and self-doubt, to accept that I could become a writer by simply writing.
