A butterfly landed an eagle: My 1st published work

I am a retired nurse turned author to help others with my hindsight as foresight, to make less mistakes and more informed decisions, to protect from and prevent emotional damage of children in the relationship/marriage.
I was married to a doctor with bipolar disorder for 27 years. We have 4 children. We already had our family when my husband was first diagnosed in 1984/85. My children were 1, 3, 5 and 7 years old. I stayed to protect them from worse things than emotional damage-staying in the marriage...too long.
God brought me through whole and at 47, I found love again. Hence I not only landed as an overcoming, Christian eagle (per say), but landed another eagle in my second husband. I learned much from my Bible study, books and self-development courses. I gave my marriage more prominence than I should have.
My book is my journey and my true story of discovery. Learn from it if you will. If it enriches one person it will have been worth its writing over three years and publishing (two years). It also gives voice and supports 'World Visions Rescue Programme' for Enslaved Children; some as young as four.
