Counseled by a priest to put her children in an orphanage after being evicted from her home, Dorothy Cusick's mother, Mary, was in danger of falling into despair. Poetically written, Dorothy's story of how her mother faced the full weight of her responsibility through her life of faith is an inspiration to the reader. Imbued with the grace only God can provide, Mary's story gives meaning to our own, recalling a verse from Genesis that "Asher's produce is rich, and he shall furnish dainties for kings" (49:20).
