I just finished reading "They Are My Children Too". Thank you Catherine for sharing your very sad story. You are an incredible woman and I feel honoured to have met you through your book. I will pray for your sons to learn the truth about your fight to have them returned and your love for them. I will pray that you will soon have them returned to you. In the boys' hearts and souls, I know they know you love them. And I will pray for all the other parents in the same terrible place as you are. Thank God you found Christopher! God Bless.

Please send me your e-mail address. Thank you.

I just last night finished the book. The date today is 9/18/01. I was
very taken by this book and its story. I can very much relate to the fear
of loosing my children as I face the fact every day that their father
could take them. Thank you Catherine for sharing your story. I do hope to
hear some updates on this story. I was honored to share in the life of an
amazing women, Lady Meyer.

I am in a situation where I am in constant fear of my sons father kidnapping my son. This is a gut wrenching story, I pray that one day it will have a happy ending. I am from Melbourne Australia and would like to personally write to Catherine, if at all possible. There must be some kind of organization that parents can go to who are also in this situation. If anyone is aware of any please let me know.

I read this book during May, 1999. There are many times that as I read the book aloud to family and friends, I felt I was reading my life story. We could change the names and the country to the U.S. and it could be the same story. I would like to be in touch with the author. I have written letters and would like an e-mail address. My husband and I want to become involved in some organization to prevent this from happening to others. Court battles are at hand for us and who knows where that will lead. I too, hope my children, Adam and Barrett, will someday read the book and all the letters I have written to them. I want them to grow up knowing they were loved, very much loved, by their mother and grandparents. This is without a doubt, one of the worst nightmares a parent could find themselves thrown into. My prayers go out to other children and parents in this situation. Blessings to all of you.

I'm not one for writing lengthy paragraphs but I do wish to say that this book found it's way into my life. I live in Melbourne, Australia. If it found it's way to me, I hope it can somehow find it's way through to Alexander & Constantin and maybe one day they will realize the true story of what happened and how their mother fought and continues fighting to have them back in her arms. It was a nice book to read and had me captivated all the way through. I just wish there was a happy ending for Catherine and her boys!
