Bushel and a Peck: Hope, Healing, and Unconditional Love...A Memoir

Více o knize

My mother told me that she'd had a secret name for me. She called me her 'Shining Star.' Like a blazing trail of light, I was always the one thing Mom could come back to. When she knew nothing else, she still knew me. She said I'd been like a beacon of hope to guide her home. It was a title that rooted my love deeply for my mom. I could see the patterns of her life now. It became clear that she'd never been weak. My mother had only wanted to be loved...Mom's mental illness stigma made my early life anything but ordinary. But my father's quiet courage helped to guide us through. Later, from strong businesswoman to Alzheimer's, my mother would leave a legacy of lasting love, and Dad, one of incredible strength.
