Some needs are special, they're not like the rest. They may leave a scar upon your chest. You may look different, have a tube, a scar. But all these things are not who you are. Even though she has a rare syndrome and some major health issues, Lucy is so much more than her "special needs." Lucy wants you to know that in so many ways she is just like you--special indeed! Lucy's story is a powerful voice for children with special needs, disabilities, and illnesses. Her story is also a valuable resource not only for parents and families with vulnerable children, but all people who need to learn the lessons of respect, understanding and compassion for those whose daily life is physically and emotionally challenging. Lucy has Kabuki syndrome, a rare genetic disorder believed to affect 1 in 32,000 births worldwide. For more information on Kabuki syndrome visit: www.allthingskabuki.org

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A simple hospital visit becomes a portal to the tender relationship between mother and daughter in this extraordinary novel by the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Olive Kitteridge and The Burgess Boys. Soon to be a Broadway play starring Laura Linney produced by Manhattan Theatre Club and London Theatre Company • LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • The New York Times Book Review • NPR • BookPage • LibraryReads • Minneapolis Star Tribune • St. Louis Post-Dispatch Lucy Barton is recovering slowly from what should have been a simple operation. Her mother, to whom she hasn’t spoken for many years, comes to see her. Gentle gossip about people from Lucy’s childhood in Amgash, Illinois, seems to reconnect them, but just below the surface lie the tension and longing that have informed every aspect of Lucy’s life: her escape from her troubled family, her desire to become a writer, her marriage, her love for her two daughters. Knitting this powerful narrative together is the brilliant storytelling voice of Lucy herself: keenly observant, deeply human, and truly unforgettable. Praise for My Name Is Lucy Barton “A quiet, sublimely merciful contemporary novel about love, yearning, and resilience in a family damaged beyond words.”—The Boston Globe “It is Lucy’s gentle honesty, complex relationship with her husband, and nuanced response to her mother’s shortcomings that make this novel so subtly powerful.”—San Francisco Chronicle “A short novel about love, particularly the complicated love between mothers and daughters, but also simpler, more sudden bonds . . . It evokes these connections in a style so spare, so pure and so profound the book almost seems to be a kind of scripture or sutra, if a very down-to-earth and unpretentious one.”—Newsday “Spectacular . . . Smart and cagey in every way. It is both a book of withholdings and a book of great openness and wisdom. . . . [Strout] is in supreme and magnificent command of this novel at all times.”—Lily King, The Washington Post “An aching, illuminating look at mother-daughter devotion.”—People

My first book. A true story of a portion of my life. A book written while I was going through the process of trying to understand how I got to a point in my life where I finally fled a long, severely abusive relationship. To be able to free myself from it and move on, I wrote my journals on Facebook and eventually, my journals were created into this book. I hope it helps not just victims of abuse but also brings awareness to those who have never understood why victims stay. Book two will be the process following the fleeing of abuse and the entering into the criminal charges and the family law tactics to be aware of, avoid or fight against. Always keep fighting to live your life, free from abuse, forever.So many ways we all play a part in the abuse towards others and towards ourselves. So many ways we allow ourselves to be abused as we allow others to be abused. We are all conditioned for it from the time we start school to the day we die.So many asked me, "How does this happen to someone like you?!". Hopefully this book explains it.
