The Sensitive One Zusammenfassung

The Sensitive One: A Memoir Susan F. Morris

At age fifty, Susan Morris is diagnosed with breast cancer-and she's floored. Desperate to pinpoint the cause, one night she decides to type a question into her search engine: What are the risk factors of getting breast cancer? She's surprised to discover research showing that long-term exposure to stress and traumatic childhood experiences can both increase the risk of breast cancer.
The Sensitive One is a braided memoir that alternates between Morris's childhood-as a sensitive child and then teenager who shouldered the burden of caring for her younger siblings as her dad's alcoholism tore at the threads of their home life-and an adult who for a decade-plus has been living a trauma-free life with a caring husband and rewarding career in nursing . . . only to be diagnosed with breast cancer.
This is a story of redemption-of a woman who manages to escape harrowing circumstances and start anew-but it's also a story of how our legacy lives within us, and how healing from the adverse effects of childhood can truly take a lifetime.

Susan Morris's courageous story The Sensitive One will inspire you to learn how healing is possible despite a lifetime of traumas, physical and emotional. Susan shows that love, joy in life, therapy, and a gritty determination to overcome it all are a powerful combination to change darkness to light and live a richer life.

Morris's insights into how adverse childhood experiences influence our health later in life are cutting-edge. The book is a delight to read. I am sure that it will become loved by women and their families, particularly those who are living through the diagnosis of breast cancer.
