When Shawn and I married, we entered into a commitment not just to each other but with our mothers. My mother was disable following her car accident in 2009. His mother's condition had deteriorated over the years due to a neuromuscular diagnosis. And, we were their main caregivers. When not at the funeral home, we were at the nursing home in Locust Hill with my mom or at his mom's in Mathews. This was our schedule until my mom's passing in 2016 and his mom's passing in 2021. When you are caring for loved ones, you do not take care of yourself. Soon after, Shawn and I both went right into dealing with our own medical issues. When this happened, things at work were greatly affected. And, I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that caused. When this became known to the public; many prayed and checked on me. But, just as many were happy I had a setback. And those same ones who gossiped about Shawn marrying me for my money went out and said I was closed cause my husband had left me and taken my money. This lie has been heavily concentrated in King and Queen and West Point. So, let me say this loud for the haters who obviously don't read, MY HUSBAND IS A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER he does not need my money. Because of this man, I've had lunch with Walter Mosley and dinner with John Grisham. We have five babies "My Darkest Prayer " "Blacktop Wasteland " "Razorblade Tears " "All the Sinners Bleed" and "King of Ashes"; each born in our living room. And, we have been blessed to meet readers, from all over the world, who adore them.
