I see this book as a period piece film. Set in the Bronx around a huge Roman Catholic Sicilian speaking Italian family. Its the early 1950s, abortion was not morally acceptable, illegal and dangerous. Out of time, options and desperate, a deliberate selfish scheme was concocted without ever taking the child's interest and its ramifications into consideration. With a stolen and permanently altered future, while she took her first fighting breath, like a thief in the night robbing her, violating her, at every level for decades.

The day I was born, my life path without permission was permanently altered by a selfish, self-absorbed mother's decision. Being telepathic as a baby was troubling, processing information I was unable to understand. Feeling unsafe and always misunderstood is a burden as my life has become a living nightmare.
