  How on earth am I supposed to go on? How can I ever feel happy again? I just want to curl up in the foetal position and die. – These are the thoughts swirling within the mind of someone grappling with the aftermath of a devastating loss.  
  Emotions so real, they threaten to break you …Why?...you have suffered a trauma. 
   In "Why Me," embark on an emotional journey of a mother whose life has been shattered by an unimaginable tragedy, —the sudden and tragic death of her beloved daughter.  
  This book is a must-read for anyone. It is a testament to the human spirit in the face of adversity. You will come to understand and learn that 'you aren't going mad', and that the intensity you are feeling does not have to last forever. 
  Acquainted with the shattered pieces of the heart, she recognizes the profound heartbreak and soul-deep emptiness that loss can inflict. However, unlike our ancestors, who had no support, more and more research is being undertaken to understand why we feel the way we feel, and why we think the way we do. 
  Wendy offers empathy and understanding, as well as a roadmap that you didn't think was available. How? Understanding trauma and cultivating self-awareness are essential steps on the path to healing. 
   Part one is her story, and Part two contains the answers you need to know to the burning questions you have to navigate your life through this new reality. Wendy can't erase your pain, she'll empower you to embrace and navigate it. Through her guidance, you'll discover a pathway forward, where the intensity of suffering gradually lessens, paving the way for newfound strength and resilience and a new perspective. 
   It is a story of survival, — a story that lingers in the soul, offering solace and inspiration long after the final page is turned. 
  ‘If you trust life, it can surprise you.’ – Wendy B King

  On many a day had Handy, the Goat Girl of Mern, pursued her goats up and down the rocky eminences of her native mountain. And never—NEVER—in her fourteen or so years' experience had she been blown up by a mountain spring. But there comes, in every one's experience a day which is unlike every other day, and so it was with the Goat Girl. As she was pursuing What-a-butter, her favorite goat, there was a sudden crash, a whish, and up flew the slab of rock on which she was standing, up and away. The adventures into which she was carried by this simple though awefull beginning take a whole book to relate. How she met Nox the Royal Ox of Keretaria, how together they went in search of little King Kerry, how at last they rescued him and found themselves feted guests of Ozma of Oz, all these things you must read for yourselves.
