At the age of twenty, Tracey Leonard went to Calcutta to work as a volunteer in Mother Teresa's home for a the dying and destitute. This story endeavors to bring the reader along on the journey from the poorest of the poor and realities of daily life in Calcutta to the dizzying heights of a thriving expat nightlife. At the age of twenty-four, Tracey began another adventure in a remote Australian aboriginal community―a world away from India but with problems equally challenging and urgent. She learned to love the place and its people and had come to think of it as "home" when her life was radically altered by a car accident. Tracey's recollections are at once hilarious and shocking, filled with a mordant humor that cuts through piety and cherishes the absurd. ..

Little Nellie was not yet four and a half when God took her to Heaven, but she had already made her First Holy Communion. Nellie received five of the seven Sacraments.

When the Holy Father, Pope St. Pius X, heard about Little Nellie he cried: "There! That is the sign for which I was waiting!"
