Uncharted Waters

The ultimate goal of writing my memoir was for cathartic reasons, to find

inner peace from the turmoil and challenges of my ‘uncharted’ life. I hope to

reveal some of the psychological dynamics of Irene Waldheim’s family in order

to promote an in-depth understanding not only for her, but for all those concerned,

whose names and places I have changed for privacy reasons, as well as

to protect the innocent and the guilty. My intention is not to accuse or offend;

rather it is a labor of love in an attempt to enlighten and help others who have

faced similar circumstances.
