Invisible to humans exists a parallel world of mice, where young Jenny misses her cherished grandfather so much that she begins to see him everywhere.Jenny is as close to her grandfather as a small mouse can be. Grandfather shows Jenny how to button her buttons and how to write her name. He passes along to her the secrets of making the best lasagna in all of Boston. And during long, shared days at Revere Beach, Grandfather teaches Jenny the names of the seashells they find washed up on shore. When Grandfather is all of a sudden gone one day, the hole he leaves behind is too great for Jenny to fathom. Isn’t that him turning a corner, sitting on a bench, heading for the pier, walking along their beloved beach? Jenny runs after the familiar silver whiskers, hoping. . . .

Have you ever stopped to think about all the Diseases and Illnesses in the World? Now, take a guess at how many Diseases and Unknown Illnesses there might be in the World… Can’t do it, right?DON’T WORRY, NEITHER CAN I! If you have ever had a Disease or Illness you know that you need to have at least five things in your favor: GOD in your corner, a sense of humor, thick skin, a great Doctor plus the support of family and friends if you ever plan on fighting your problem.Now, what kind of person are you? I’m the type of person that likes to stand out in a room filled of People who have Disabilities. I’m not afraid to “make waves” (make a scene) around others just to accommodate someone.If you ask me I will speak-up and you might not like what I’m going to say but that’s your problem, not mine! Well, by writing this short story I hope that you will learn not to assume anything about anyone because everyone has problems that make people “Jump” to conclusions or assume the “Worst” in someone.We all have done it! It is just Human Nature and it starts when we are children and as we grow-up by Bullies or even by the people we trust the most, our PARENTS. This is the story of my life growing up and living with a Very Rare form of Ataxia. I hope that it helps now and even Future Generations by opening the eyes of Parents and even Teachers around the World so they start noticing, talking to and really listening to their kids and children in schools before assuming something is wrong. If I only knew when I was younger that my life would turn out this way I would not have attended School to receive my Degree in Photography and maybe even dropped out of High School to work as much as possible so I could build up my SSDI (Social Security Disability Income). In this short story I reflect back on many things in my life, some good, bad, crazy and even those “What was I thinking?” moments. I say exactly how I feel about life and I share the “Power of our Mind” as my body starts to break down I begin losing some senses but others are heighten by sharing 2 short stories that I truly believe happened but I have been told otherwise. Most of the public thinks that we (people with disabilities) just get in the way or disturb their lives but I’m here to tell them all to: “GET OUT OF OUR WAY!” I apologize that this book is not longer, it’s hard typing a book when you have little to no control of your hands and fingers. I need to “Chicken peck” the keys on the computer.My goal is to bring awareness about Ataxia and other issues that people don't think about but need to.To learn more about all the Diseases Associated with Ataxia please go to the National Ataxia Foundation Web Site at www.ataxia.org or you can Email: naf@ataxia.org - You can also reach me on Facebook at www.facebook/christopherdehaven1971 to ask questions or talk about the book. Thank you for your helpThis is my 1st book and is the UNEDITED VERSION
