This lady has a great way of telling each story in such a kind way especially Amy Winehouse. Not any other thing Ive watched on her was ever focused on her attributes and was never done with such kindness

    First of all I love your clear and pleasant voice. The moment you start to speak, you have me hooked to the story that will follow. What an incredible woman Diana Cooper; she lived the life she was happy with. A very caring woman and beautiful. I cringed at the "war segment" but she learned and went along. She loved Duffy she loved the theater, unlike many that cannot have both worlds, Diana found the time. I thought maybe Duffy just used her, but in the end, I concluded; they were made for each other 💘💘💘 Loved it ❤

The way you present the biographies is clean and concise and covers the highlights and achievements in a way that dignifies your subjects without denying their human frailties and failings. It makes me realize we all have a life story, but every life is complex and can never be fully understood. I think you have a real gift and hope you keep producing these well done bios! 👍 👏

      Erb's palsy, also known as Erb-Duchenne palsy, is a form of brachial plexus palsy. It typically results from an injury to the upper nerves of the brachial plexus, which are responsible for the movement and sensation in the shoulder, arm, and hand. This condition often occurs during childbirth if the baby's neck is stretched to the side.
      The effects of Erb's palsy can vary but may include:
      Weakness or paralysis in the arm
      Reduced or absent reflexes in the arm
      Loss of sensation in the arm
