I am very grateful for the outpouring of praise for my latest book my memoir about my life with Pat Conroy TELL ME A STORY. I’d like you all to know that I read everyone of them and the private messages. Until recently (about beginning of March 2020) I was on an extensive book tour where I tried to meet as many of you, my wonderful readers, as I could… Sadly, the world has taken a scary turn; my prayers are with all of you…

I just finished Tell Me A Story. It was a story that could only be told by someone who loved another so much and who was loved and respected in return.
Thank you for saying so many things at the end were hazy or unremembered and that most times fear was the most dominant emotion. I lost my beautiful husband two years ago to leukemia. Diagnosed just after retirement. It was to be our time but was not to be. I remember crawling beside him into his hospital bed one night too when he couldn’t be calmed.
After crawling in to hold him we both slept for a time. Such precious memories we widows have. Thank you for reminding me to go there on sleepless nights. I’ve loved all your books but I know I love this one best. Again, thank you.

Pat, this is Mihai Radulescu, Cassandra's agent and friend. As you see she cannot attend to these messages... but I assure you she reads them. This is the first one answered here in this guest book, by me....
I could not hold my tears and my overwhelming feelings so I decided to write these few words to you... thank you for liking the memoir and most of all thank you for sharing such personal and heart breaking message with us. The memory of your words and of your love you shared with your husband is something I will not soon forget.
