THE PECKING ORDER THEORY: Is It a Myth? Is a story of troubles, perseverance, and family struggle. Michelle L. Suarez has written this book to share the message that we can prosper and take care of our loved ones, even in the most challenging situations. She writes: "In June of 2017, my mother died from complications of Alzheimer's. The other shoe had finally fallen. It was at that moment I was finally able to exhale when I didn't even know I was not breathing. Ms. Suarez further adds: "As my mother always said, Life is a Gift. That is why it is called the PRESENT. So live people, LIVE!"
