Dedication
To Tanya – your love and devotion during these long years of effort meant everything to me, and you remain my everything to this day… And to Thérèse – you birthed me, you raised me you taught me how to love, and how to think. In every way imaginable, this work is as much yours as it is mine. Words will forever fail to express my gratitude for your role in my life.
