1963—1973
I graduated from Brooklyn College School of Nursing in 1963. One semester was spent at Maimonides Hospital, where we gave blood samples to a cardiologist who was developing the pacemaker with his brother. Putting on that uniform was life-changing—it taught me the power of service, resilience, and caring for others.
As a nurse, I explored many fields—cancer research, pediatrics, geriatrics, and more. At 25, five months pregnant, I survived an attempted murder by my then-husband, a story I share in my book The Life Of A Psychic Detective.
Despite the damage to my body, I was able to give birth months later. One of my greatest joys is my daughter, now a wise and creative entrepreneur who owns the Shiny Fish Emporium on Anna Maria Island, FL.
Solving my *first case in that hospital, using intuition and observation, helped me survive—and set the path for everything that followed. I left nursing on a high note.
