Lorna BellA nurse for forty-seven years and hospice nurse since 1995, Lorna Bell's first book, Gentle Yoga: For People with Arthritis, M.S., Strokes and Wheelchairs (coauthored with Eudora Seyfer), was motivated by her desire to help those with mobilityproblems. She considers herself a storyteller rather than an author, and since she's been a hospice nurse, Lorna has wanted to help break the uncomfortable silence that often surrounds those concluding their lives.

Happy Endings "exemplifies the beautiful, hopeful side of a difficult, sad subject," she says. "Stories like these have been kept a secret long enough." The author lives in Dallas with her husband, Ron. They enjoy gardening, walking, photography, and visiting their four children and eight grandchildren. Read More Read Less
