By IRB Media

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

#1 We are all products of our family mythology. stories are not only passed down, but nestled in every cell. When I thought about writing a memoir, I knew I had to write my parents’ story because I am of them. Everything that happened in my childhood was underpinned by my parents’ attitudes to the world around them.

#2 I have a long memory. I’ve thought about it a lot, and I believe it has something to do with the accident. I can remember details from very early childhood onward, yet for the life of me I can never find my keys once I’ve put them down.

#3 I had a accident when I was fifteen months old. I was sitting in a chair, and my father’s enamel one-pint army mug was placed on the table in front of me. I reached up to grab the handle, and my dress melted into my skin when the tea was scalding hot. I was shot up with penicillin, which saved my life.

#4 I loved the place I grew up, despite the fact that I couldn’t wait to leave and travel. I returned to Cranbrook last year, which is my hometown, and was overwhelmed by the memories.
