Arlene Starr
This is a true story of Michael, as told by his carer and how he worked through a great loss in his life. It was with the help of others and the love, care and training he received from his father, plus his courage and faith that he was able to bear the experience as well as he did. His carer was Cathy Glass, the author, and she gave a good and loving narration of the few months she spent with the Michael and his father. It was written in first person almost read like a diary, with abundant details of daily activity wrapped around Michael's story.

“I would prefer that you not touch me," I said when her hand moved as if she intended to comb her long nails through my hair.

"I’m afraid it can’t be helped," she replied. Her fingers passed close to my ear as they divided my straight lengths into sections and lifted the whole away from my face. There was a brazenness to her smile for a moment. She then released my hair, letting it fall onto my shoulders.

I swallowed back a rise of anxiety, wondering if Thaddeus was right to fear her.”
