And without warning the powerful crippling ailment would surprisingly reappear and she would battle the ailment until her death. The roots of this book evolve around my Mother when she was just four years old. She lost her parents in a murder/suicide tragedy, one that she witnessed first-hand. This book also contains hoarding snapshots from a home video recorded August 1, 2004, five years before the first ever nationally televised Hoarders show which was released in 2009.
