She spent three exceedingly educational years in Nagasaki, Japan. Katherine is also a reporter for her hometown newspaper. The author's even-year-old son Ben suffered a mysterious brain hemorrhage, and was not expected to survive emergency surgery. This is the story of Ben's extraordinary spirit and resolve, a tale of triumphant woe. In frank detail, Perreth recounts the journey of mothering her son Ben. In his teen years, the challenge became addressing Ben's mental illness. Ultimately, Perreth and her son came to survive and thrive in spite of (and because of) these challenges. This award-winning tale of triumphant woe chronicles the spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical effects on a family after seven-year-old Ben is found in a coma. Despite Ben's ensuing struggles with myriad disabilities and mental health issues, love wins. Narrated with irrepressible humor by the quirky Mom, the story follows parallel tales of sixteen years of trauma and victory, culminating with Ben's invitation to Washington DC.

�ber die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Wisconsin woman, Katherine Perreth, graduated from UW-Madison in 1983 with Social Work and Sociology degrees. She spent three exceedingly educational years in Nagasaki, Japan. For the last twenty, she's lived in the home she grew up in just outside Madison, with her husband and three kids. Katherine is a reporter for her hometown newspaper, administrative assistant, and facilitator of a reminiscence writing class. She loves Bucky Badger, the Packers, mysteries, and the sight, sounds, and smells of cows. Not necessarily in that order.
