Summary: Equivalent to Donkey Dung
Review: Being a multiple myself and knowing a--forgive the pun--host of others, I must say that this is one of those books that gives a bad name to our community. This woman was not only socially and legally irresponsible, but down right nutty. Personally, I think whoever diagnosed her as multiple did her a grave diservice. The woman seemed more likely schitzophrenic to me. And UGH! It was terribly written!

Summary: IT'S TIME FOR KATHERINE!
Review: Elizabeth Katherine Meyer survived extreme physical, mental and sexual abuse in childhood. Her father was an especially cruel man who would often taunt Katherine and set her up to be ridiculed by others. At an early age, Katherine perfected her "retreat" skills. She had somehow created seven alters to go to bat for her at various points in her life. They were different ages and two of the alters were male. One of her male alters, "Michael," was described as an ISH, or Inner Self Helper. It is Michael who ironically helps Katherine to bring her other alters together. Liz and Me-Liz were twin alters who coped with pain. The Liz personality was the weakest, so Katherine's other alters conducted a "meeting" and banished her. It is through a painful divorce, losing custody of her twin daughters and her 1965 Dodge Coronet that Katherine finally confronts her condition. Her soldierly efforts with her therapist prove fruitful and ironically, it is Michael (perhaps he was named after the Archangel, known for his protection against evil and a brave warrior) who really brings the healing process together. The book's title, "Katherine, It's Time" has been shortened to "Kit," the name the author currently uses.
