Thanks Matt. Every element on the cover is significant and meaningful. The woman, prescribed dozens of mind-altering pharmaceuticals for decades, had the choice to release them any time she wished. The story of Nestlé, the cat, is contained within the pages and saved her life on multiple occasions. It’s all really quite incredible that Rachael is as caring and wonderful of a soul as she is, after such a life of turmoil and heartache.
