The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and
saves those who are crushed in spirit.

Under Grandma’s Quilt
ISBN: 0-9744552-0-2

Rho began writing this book in November 2002, eleven years after she left her marriage. During the 19 months that it took for the book to be completed, incredibly talented and professional people helped with the editing, proofreading, layout, photography and graphics. Suggestions or pieces of information were given to her—sometimes before she knew she even needed it! Each step of the way found just the right person to help. It has been an exciting process and the book is beautiful and gut wrenching at the same time.

The book contains excerpts from Rho’s journal and brief stories of her life. There is poetry, journal pages for the reader, telephone numbers to call if help is needed and a safety plan. She talks about her faith—how it has carried her and how forgiveness has finally come.

Even the book cover was designed so that it would not threaten the abuser if he/she would see it. The book is 7” x 7” and only 108 pages so it can easily fit into a purse or bag.

What other readers have said after reading her story:

“I want to thank you for the gift you have given
back to so many people—hope.”

“I just started reading your book and
I love your writing and honesty.”

“Wow, what a powerful testimony of God’s love and healing.”

“Jesus is really helping me now and nightmares have stopped. I am crying as I write but now they are tears of peace and comfort. Thank you. Thank you.”

“Thank you for giving me insight into why
people stay in abusive situations.”

“I couldn’t possibly have felt the extent of the emotion in
the first part of the book. I could only imagine and that
was bad enough but boy—did I feel it in the rest. It took
me up and down like a roller coaster—but I’m glad to
say I finished on a high.”

“God does bring beauty out of ashes.”
