Book Synopsis
Make Someday Today is my inaugural autobiography and my story of years of verbal, emotional, physical and sexual abuse. My eldest daughter's boyfriend, Justin, lost his entire family in an instant when their plane crashed on February 3, 2006, just short of the airport as they were travelling to their vacation home for the Superbowl. Two months later, to the day, I was hit with my cancer diagnosis. It was his strength and determination to continue in this game of life that inspired me to stop feeling sorry for myself, get out of bed, dust myself off and get back in my own game of life. Through him, I saw his purpose and there was a reason he decided not to get on the plane that fateful day. He inspired me to recognize my purpose, which is to share my story for women, and yes, men, too, who are victims of sexual assault and domestic violence in the hopes that they will make someday today when it comes to having the courage to leave their abusers. I promised Justin that if I ever created the educational foundation, I would name it in honor of his family. I am proud to say that if all goes as planned, The Kraut Family Educational Foundation will be funded in 2025. My hope is to provide hundreds, even thousands of educational scholarships to pay it forward by funding the foundation with donations and a portion of the proceeds of my books. My story is not a happy one, but the ending is a glorious one, and it is one that I think everyone can relate to.
