I have Young Onset Parkinson's and I found this book very open and healing for me. It left me hanging and wanting more so I look forward to the next book. This would make a great TV series.

My husband, a Native American healer, just passed on from cancer without confronting his issues. We knew this & he wasn't able to do so. I am certain that he rest of my life is dedicated to healing myself & thus aid in healing my family. Bless you for daily om & this book. A great reminder.

Scott:
Wow! Finished SummerPath today while walking in the hills of Ashland. A great deal of resonance with this whole process. From the description on the the DailyOm, your web site and to the book itself it was uncanny and unnerving to say the least.
You see I’m a Scot, recently moved from Whidbey Island (2.5 years), living in the hills of Ashland and also on a kind of quest for my soul path!
In 1999 a psychic relayed to me that within 5–6 years I would be moving to Southern Oregon on my way eventually to Northern California. At the time I had been living for almost 30 years on Whidbey and loved my 5 acre forest and art studio. Hey I exclaimed, No Way. I’m happy here. She kept after me and insisted that I needed to get on the path. Toward the end she said she couldn’t help me any longer. “You’re still here!”
However events did conspire to have me sell my property to pay for a major eye operation on both eyes in Eugene. Since 6th grade I had been legally blind without my eye glasses and during the 90s my eyesight deteriorated to being legally blind with my contacts. Here I did photography, design and art and I could barely function anymore. We thought first I would live in Eugene, but I saw an aura reader who agreed on the need to move but to also explore other places. I came through Ashland and gathered info about it having the second highest art sales of cities under 30,000 in US. Friends in Eugene recommended looking at Lithia Park. I loved the hills and shortly found a place.
The first psychic had mentioned several times that I would have something to do with volcanos. What possible connection could I have and then it dawned on me while doing photography at the top of Crater Lake, while surrounded by a half-dozen volcanoes all around.
I could go on (like being a Co-op member) but to say the least it is all a bit uncanny.
Loved the audio book and once I got past her voice used for all the characters and the necessary details to start the story, just couldn’t remove my earbuds. A wealth of insights and teachings, Thanks.

Thank you Scott for allowing the download of such a wonderful and inspiring book. I read the book in less then 4 hours from cover to cover and couldn't get enough! I believe that the messages that were given to me came at a time when I needed them the most. I pre-ordered Waiting for Autumn and I look forward to receiving it!
Once again...thank you ever so much for the free download. Without it, I may have never had the opportunity to read your work.

Hello Scott, hello everyone,
This book really got to me. I was able to relate to Don in many ways (although I have not been deathly ill, I've entertained thoughts of leaving this plane. Id heard about walk-ins, and I thought this sounded convenient -as a last resort). This story really made me re-think this. It also coincided with finally reaching out to a relative I've been avoiding for a long time. I think I actually decided to open up to her last night, but the phone call I finally made was made today, during a break I took from listening to the audio tape. I didn't even realize this till just now.
Plus, even though I downloaded this book a while ago, I 'happened' to listen to it today after only yesterday finally voicing (loudly) my long inwardly kept feelings of feeling like I want to leave this plane.
Do not think I would want to be a dog, though (just kidding, I don't think I will be leaving, I think I'm just at a turning point)but I will be looking differently at my dogs from now on...
Thank you Scott Blum, I am still stunned and I am very much looking forward to Waiting for Autumn.
Much love,
Denise

Scott - A truely captivating story. The encouragement to yell and scream and get long-held, buried emotions out of the body - was incredibly powerful. That chapter was so personal for me, I had a hard time reading through it. It touched some very deep/powerful emotions. It was a wakeup call to me. So, yes, I'm yelling and dancing hard to get "it" (whatever "it" is) out. I've been trying for years, but this was motivation to try harder! Bless you for your beautiful sharing, Hazel

Thank you for the free download of the spoken version. Your story pulled me in completely. Often with books on tape I will hear the first 5 min. and not be interested. I enjoyed your story very much as well as the lesson in the end of giving the burden back to his mother, so that she can then release it as well. That is profound and hopefully will inspire me to do the same. Thank you.

thank you for the free download. It is delightful to be cared for by others on the path who have learned how to create abundance. I hope I can do the same one day. what spoke to me is the idea of releasing my old abandonment(not worthy tapes) back to my father and beyond, so that they can stop feeling bad and burdoned about me and get on with their own healing. Never thought of it with that perspective before. It adds power to my resolve to heal and get on with it with a new understanding that it is also important to the perpetrators healing. Beautiful, thank you. My gift to you is a verse from a song "take the hate that's all around you, mold it all into a ball. Toss it till it starts to jiggle, fold it till its very small. Tickle it to make it giggle, hang it up upon the wall. Love it, change it, rearrange it, You have the power to change it all. Love, susan

Blessings, love and light for this wonderful true book - it confirmed all that we already know in our inner selves but sometimes are too blind to see. This was a work of love - i cannot wait for the next part to be released. Mr. Scott Blum - continue on your path of healing by using this divine gift that you have.

I was so impressed! There is a message i keep being reminded of (not sure who said it first) "When you are ready the teacher will come" (or words to that effect).
Having a really bad day, decided to kill some time reading this ebook - well I think you get what I got out of it!
BRILLIANT - of course i will be looking forward to Waiting for Autumn.

I loved the book. I knew the email came to me for a reason. Your book has reinforced so many things that I been reading and experiencing over the past year. I will be waiting in anticipation for Waiting for Autumn. Thank you for touching my soul.

Thank you for the e-book. I listened to it in two sittings, having "abandoned" it at 1:30 AM to pick up again in daylight.
I found many parallels and synchronicities with my own life and relationships. Thank you again

The book was awesome!!!! I started at around 11.30 pm the night and went to bed only after hearing it fully by about 3.00 am in the morning!!! However, I feel a little disappointed that you abandon the stories of your female characters very abruptly... Like Suzanne, I REALLY wanted to know what happened after she fainted... and that distracted me throughout the rest of the book!!!! Can you complete her story???? PLEASE????

Dear Scott,
Thank you for writing this story. I believe I was guided to your books for a reason and from reading Summers Path I understand I have many lessons to learn on my own Spiritual journey. I am excited about the forthcoming launch of Waiting for Autumn and have already placed my order. Many thanks once again.
Peace and love to all.

Thank you Scott for a great book. I downloaded the e-book, planning for a long flight cross country. I have always been able to really 'get into' spiritual message stories while high above the clouds for some reason and your book was no exception. I too, did not want it to end and I want a hard copy as well. I have a strong connection with the main character, Don, as I work for hospice and love his parallel, Robert. I understand dis-ease and the impact it has on the body, mind and soul. I have watched people meet their Angel days, weeks, before dying. I have seen their shift. I have also watched the struggle, the wonder of why they were lingering so long... what work were they doing? Needless to say i will re-read/listen Summer's path. I believe their is more in there I need to learn. Thank You,
I have loved the sequence of books written by Lynn Andrews and Mary Summer Rain and so I anxiously look forward to your next.

Dear Scott,
Thank you so much for writing something that reminded me of my own life path. Years ago, I had a Spiritual exprience while undergoing an operation. For years I have been writing, thinking, and trying to put bits and pieces together about What the guides explained to me about the meaning of life. You lit a fire that has smoldered in my soul for years. I was amazed at how often I yelled! out loud, that is it, or cried because it opened doors; that have been too long shut. I promised if ,they, My Guides, let me return I would spend the rest of my life helping others understand. I have helped in many way's but because of my emotions I could never grasp the real meaning. Your book has tickled my memory and I am really sure I have a lot of remembering coming soon. Can not wait for your next book
Thank You Scotti
P.S. thank you for the explanation of 11-11. I bought a couple of books on that, and gave up on them. Some of them were scared me to death, and others made me laugh. Thanks for knowing the true meaning , and helping me remember!

The book was very readable, but I was disappointed. Sorry. I guess I was expecting more enlightenment or something, especially since so much happened in a short time more towards the end. And it seemed like it ended with no point, just a giant lead in to the next book. But it was pleasant to read. I guess I need to think about it a little more.
