Just days after turning fifty, Martha Maddux, a spirited mother and civic activist, was told she had Alzheimer’s disease. She and husband Carlen felt as though they’d been shoved out of a plane 10,000 feet up, with nothing to grab but themselves. A Path Revealed is not about the fallout from an insidious disease that extended over seventeen years. It is the story of a path of hope emerging during the darkest hours - a path that lifted Carlen and Martha above the devastating symptoms of this disease. Carlen traveled with Martha to the backwoods of Kentucky, where the quiet presence of a Catholic nun revealed a hidden path. He was forced to slow down as he traced this path halfway around the world to Australia, retreated weekends to a monastery, embraced meditation, and landed all alone in Thomas Merton’s cabin. This story conveys a message of hope and joy in the midst of an almost overwhelming tragedy.

Exposed By DNA: A Path to Reveal Family Secrets is a twist and turn adventure after the discovery of shocking results from an Ancestry DNA test. One family, siblings with different DNA? It will keep you wanting to know what happens next. An innocent love letter written in 1954 started a chain of events that prompted an exploration of the dates of paternity for my sister Lucy. Never in a million years would I have thought that my, and all my siblings' DNA would be in question. Science, in this case, has revealed what our parents never told us. Unless we do DNA testing, do we know where we actually come from? Is family history being rewritten for families because of a little test called DNA? My family history changed. What I was told and believed growing up was half the truth. With the use of many DNA sites, including Ancestry.com; 23andMe; GEDmatch.com (the site that helped identify the "Golden State Killer" suspect); FTDNA; and My Heritage, I have been able to map my own DNA.In this book I describe, in layperson's language, the process of mapping my DNA to reveal new family connections while searching for the truth
