About Janice Kimball

At 86, I am embarking on my fourteenth lifetime. Like a chameleon of good nature, I am able to fit into whatever setting I am living in at the time. Having never learned to give up, and having the fortitude not to judge others, are my main characteristics. At the age of fifteen, pregnant and kicked out of school, I married my predator. At the age of eighteen, I had borne him three sons. Twenty years later, I made my escape. (link to story). To prove to myself and to my family that I was worthy, I became a full-time student for the next 10 years.
