What would you do if you were a (suddenly) single grandmother and both of your daughter and son-in-law were sent off to war at the same time, leaving you as primary caregiver for your 2-year old grandson??? You'd do exactly what I did... Report for Doodie ! So many events inspired this book...some happy, some frustrating, some sad...but all...life-changing. My story starts with one incredibly funny incident that served as an epiphany to share my story. This was not the first time I was "Reporting for Doodie", but it was the first time I was doing it all alone. Or so I thought...I discovered a secret vault filled with friends I never knew I had. Sadly, I also lost a few along the way. I found myself in the midst of an unexpected divorce, facing the possible loss of my home and making a major career change, when someone, somewhere took a look at my proverbial "plate" and thought..."there's a little corner of her plate that isn't taken, she needs a toddler to care for...oh, and at the same time, let's throw in a rarely-heard-of medical condition to make her life even more interesting". I hope you enjoy my account of how this beautiful child saved me from myself and how I used "The Secret" to channel the inner strength my mother gave me...all compliments of the U.S. Military.
