For me, returning to school wasn't a matter technology of courage as technology much as it was a matter of survival. Did writing this book help you heal? If so, how? Writing this book put an end to the nightmares. Like many daughters of alcoholic mothers, I have suffered for years from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Even talking about my life with my mother would cause me to grow very cold and begin to shake, as though I could not get warm. I've suffered memory loss to some degree, though not as much as my sister, who insists that she doesn't remember most of her teen-age years. I see the stories that we've told in our book as a necessary cauterization of a horrible festering wound. When one's soul is as wounded as ours have been, the only cure is daylight and fresh air--in other words, we must tell our stories, whether or not the world in general thinks these stories are "appropriate."
