   That little scene in the last chapter of The Findlings, where Delilah and Bibi discuss Anna, did in fact happened. Not the whole conversation, but that portion where the women argue about the voice’s name, and Delilah reveals who it actually is.

    That single moment continues to be one of the most alarming, revealing, astounding, and beautiful moments of my life. It meant I wasn’t crazy for hearing voices, and it meant that I was being looked after. Imagine that happening to you! The moment was a game changer for me!
