Without Delusion

The time setting of this story is the end of October and through most of November of 2008. This was the year Obama was elected President, and the year that right down the highway from San Angelo, TX, the raid on the compound of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Sect occurred. The raid occurred because of their bigamy practices, and male member marriages to under aged girls. These actions and practices were not acceptable to the locals of this area. In 2008 many attempts to extradite Warren Jeffs for trial for being the polygamous sect leader of the YFZ Ranch in Eldorado, TX dominated the local Headlines. That compound being raided was the main topic of conversation in San Angelo, because Texas, which is considered part of the Bible belt, did not graciously accept the fact that he had 77 wives, and these wives were married to him when they were minor girls of 12 or 14 years of age. During this time period my friend and I worked in the home healthcare business in San Angelo. This job was tending to the needs of the elderly and other patients needing special care. All patients, mentioned in this story, health problems, locations, incidents, and time settings have been scrambled to protect the patients privacy. Of course no real names are used. We began writing this story in hopes of bringing a better understanding to the public of the care of the elderly and other individuals whom require special attention. As the story progressed, due to patients and Caregivers lives blending, a need arose to write about problems and/or incidents involving Witchcraft, Alcoholics, and the Mentally Challenged. The story further blossomed into turning to Biblical scriptures in seeking to calm and/or help soften some patients delicate emotions. After reading this novel we hope you have a better insight as to what Without Delusion really means!
