I wish to thank the courageous children of Virgin Gorda for sharing their incredible stories of strength and faith. My sincerest thanks to those parents and guardians who allowed the children to participate in this book. I pray that they and the children will find solace in having revealed their painful ordeals. I appreciate the kind help from those Principals who assisted in obtaining the children’s photos, Kimberly George, Bregado Flax Educational Centre, Norma Creque, Robinson O’Neal Primary School, Jan Morash, Valley Day School, Laura Fox, Ciboney Centre for Excellence and from Mr. Nice Guy. Chez Bamboo Restaurant shared cake and ice cream and a joyful setting for interviews. Special thanks to Chris Yates whose tireless efforts helped rebuild Leverick Bay and North Sound. And to my mentor and friend, Professor Norbert Artzt, for his words of wisdom and my daughter, Lorri Michelle Smith, a psychologist who recommended this endeavour.
