Me: After having lived for 95 years, and my childhood under a totalitarian government/Hitler, I have finally arrived at what I consider my global responsibility. Yes, technology, fast-moving medical infusions, and the global pandemic have shifted my orientation toward the need for Global Healing!

Her father, mother, sister and Hanni had to say goodbye to their home, pack up and go to America to escape the Nazi take over. My neighbor may have heard about my interest and work on Global Healing. I have yet to find the most appropriate time to interview her, we have spoken on the telephone and have plans to make a ‘zoom date’ soon. My neighbor and Hanni will be presenting a book talk at the Brookline Public Library tomorrow so I will attend that on Zoom as well. I will keep you updated on what happens next!
