A Wishful Eye

D. L. McIntyre has been telling stories through the written word most of her adult life, first in newspapers in her native southeastern Indiana and later in alumni magazines for two Kentucky colleges. She has chronicled her life’s journey since her twelfth birthday. She is a wife, a mother of three grown children, and a grandmother to three boys. Her faith has sustained her through caring for a son with severe autism spectrum disorder and a husband with mental illness. An education studies major from Berea College, she is an adult education instructor in a state institution and loves helping her students overcome the obstacles that have kept them from earning a high school equivalency diploma. Her goal in life is to lift other people up to find hope—especially the hope found in Jesus.
