Compiled, with Introduction and Reports by Chrystal Ocean. Copyright 2005. Raised in poverty, Dana had the deck stacked against her; but poverty alone couldn't account for the things to come. More relevant for Dana was her family's history of disruptive and abusive relationships, a pattern which, knowing it best, she repeated. Now, having divested herself of harmful relationships, Dana faces a further challenge, that of raising a child with Duchennes Muscular Dystrophy. In spite of her hardships, in the end Dana's story evinces hope, not least because of the strength of her own resiliency and tenacity. -- WISE Book - Policies of Exclusion, Poverty & Health: Stories from the front Podcast Channel: http://bcseawalker.podbean.com/ Personal Blog: Challenging the Commonplace - and other irreverent activities http://challengingthecommonplace.blogspot.com/ To UNSUBSCRIBE send to: [log in to unmask] the following phrase "unsubscribe click4hp" as unquoted text.
