About the Author

Lorna was born in Leicestershire, United Kingdom, in 1971, she loved life and people. From her first marriage she had her only child, a daughter Lydia. Lorna was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder in 2000, and had several hospital stays, during which she wrote her first book “Snappy But Happy” a self help book on Mental Health Issues. Lorna might have described herself as an “ordinary” person - but she actually proved to be Extraordinary. She faced whatever life threw at her with courage and positivity. She just got on with it, whether it was Bipolar Disorder, insulin dependent diabetes, sleep apnoea and finally cancer. She wrote her second book (this one) but sadly passed away in 2020 before it could be published. As most of her Consultants’ letters say “she was a lovely Lady” as you can see for yourself.
