State College of Florida
Today my daughter attends her pinning ceremony as a graduate nurse from the State College of Florida. I will have the honor of stepping onto that stage and placing the pin on her lapel. Six years ago I graduated from the same school with an English - AA. Who would have known mother and daughter making history at the same college? This is the time when a mother feels she has succeeded....when her child sees the value of an education and sticks with it until she obtains her goals. I am so proud of you #1 daughter. I love you and wish for you greatness and more than anything else I wish for you to always feel the love I have for you today. I pray that my love will help you through the challenges of this life. Here is my toast Sheena 'Marina' - 'Cheers!'. Love, Mommy

'She Ain't My Sister' editor review
"I read (She Ain't My Sister) with a combination of horror and delight. Horror at the gritty reality it portrayed, and delight at the graceful storytelling. Molly is an incredible heroine, and her story will resonate with many people. Perhaps the book's greatest accomplishment is how it explains the process that goes into abuse and the feeling of hopelessness that such children must feel. On one hand it's a frightening book and on the other, a hopeful one. It is very, very powerful." Laurie Rosin
