Sue and her husband, Bill, live in the small community of Alma, New Mexico, on the west side of New Mexico near the border.
In the not-too-distant future Sue will have a book of her "Ranch Recipes." In 2002 Sue was nominated for Female Poet of the Year by the Western Music Association, and she has recently received awards for her pastels and oil paintings of ranch scenes.
The artwork is a collaboration by Grace Cooper of Camp Verde, Arizona and SueJones.
Sue was subject to the most distressing of memories, that of sexual abuse at the hands of her father.
Sue had seen many doctors before she came to me. Their choice of drugs, Ambien for sleep, Prozac for depression and the premenstrual syndrome, Luvox for obsessive-compulsive disorder, and Percocet and Fioricet for pain were certainly appropriate, but in the last analysis, they were ineffective.
Sue recognized quickly that she was on a bad drug trip and with termination of that drug, she returned abruptly to her prior state of near-wellness — but she continued to talk incessantly.
