THE BRAIDING OF DIVERSE LIVES: The Story of Mitsy Fisher focuses on friendship, loneliness, loss and love.<br><br>At the story&#39;s outset, Luke looks on as a culmination of Mitsy&#39;s lifelong dream, her refuge for homeless, abused, and orphaned children, goes up in flames. Luke recalls his relationship with Mitsy and these streets during his adolescence.<br><br>Now, Mitsy is gravely injured when she rushes back inside the burning building to save her beloved dog, Blackie. As she lies in a hospital bed in a medically induced coma, her future uncertain, her current boyfriend, Andy, revisits her past, reading to Mitsy from a series of notebooks and journals she has been keeping since she was a young girl. As Andy reveals more and more of Mitsy&#39;s past&ndash;-the death of her mother and brother when Mitsy was young, her complicated relationship with her father, the scholarship that took her to a special school in New York City as a teenager, the harrowing experience that tested her love of music, and her unyielding faith. He can only hope that the difficult life she&#39;s lead will give her the strength to recover. Will Mitsy succumb to her injuries, or will love and faith carry her through, as they always have before?
