I sit in awe of Val's experience and her determination. Truly 'knowing yourself' can be a frightful experience, but Val does the work and slowly reformats her mind. All while taking care of her children and being a productive citizen. Val and that law firm were made for each other and they are a great example of a business that has morals and acts on them. Caring people are the best, something not to be found in the Clampire.

Ken was a good man. His family were amazing to me. I called the law firm Ken and his cousin and a dozen or so old VanCott attorneys started after I left Salt Lake. His daughter was the receptionist. I told her who I was and she was excited to hear front me. She’s the one who told me when her dad got cancer. She said “he doesn’t want you to be sad but he always says you were the best assistant he ever had.” My son had gone to see him and he had told my son the same thing. I have been lucky to work closely with two great attorneys in my lifetime. They were more than bosses.

Well Tony, this article might have been out of the time line, but Val's other article was still fresh in my mind and heart.

Val, I so relate to the psychological trauma and conditioning. I still have to be careful not to attract narcissists in my life as an empath.

Love your articles and sending you lots of 💜

"She ended up living with us for several years... because shortly after I hired her, her mother disappeared." -- because more surprising things have happened before, was it possible her mother was a Scientologist?

Nope, just a drug addict.

Thank you!
