This book is dedicated to my daughter, Diane, and my son Steven with treasured memories and all my love. The Annie Hansen series is also dedicated to all who are touched by mental illness, in its many ramifications, and the possibility of love, career satisfaction, and self-actualization for those previously marginalized and ignored by “mainstream” society. As well, to those friends and family members hurt by our random and often cruel actions and psychotic beliefs. May we forgive and be forgiven.
