This memoir tells the brutally honest story of how author Sarah
Ann Murphy learned to overcome serious depression and a
failure-to-thrive childhood. She begins with her birth and traces
her childhood with an Irish, alcoholic mother who abandoned her
emotionally. As a child, her existence was barely tolerated by her
Old Mother; birthdays were not acknowledged or celebrated at all.
As she recounts the ups and downs--mostly downs--of her growing up
years, she comes to the realization that the best times were with
her animals.
She learned to thrive because her animals taught her that she
was lovable and gave her a different perspective on life. This in
turn gave her that spark that set her on the path to developing a
strong backbone and a moral core--strengths she would need later
with her abusive husband, who treated her much the same as her
mother had. As she began to grow into her own person--someone who
could love and be loved--she took the steps with her analyst to
overcome serious depression and a failure-to-thrive childhood.
