And two nights ago when I was back in his bedroom, I went and I said, you know, I have to tell you something. I'm about to go on the Oprah show. And I just want to make sure that you know that has anyone asked you about my book? Because it's coming out. People are talking about it. And he said, yeah, a few of my friends have. And I said, well, what do you tell them?
He said, I tell them it's about memories and your life. And I looked at him and I said, but guess what? You can tell them whatever you want. You can tell them all of it. You can tell them everything I told you. You can tell them how you feel about it. And you can tell them that maybe this story might help them. And he said, okay, mom.

And then he said, and now I'm ready to read it because he's old enough to read the story.

Well, thank you. And thank you for the work you're doing to also now pay it forward after your experience. You know, that's what also in writing this book and realizing that I have so many resources and I tapped into all of them. I read every possible book. I tried every possible therapy. I was going to work my way out of this in many ways.

And I think what came down to the writing of this book and the whole meaning of this book is that it's in the tell.

And so resources or not, I just hope that every person who's been through something like this or has any kind of broken part of them can find one person in their life and to know where that person is in their life, but to be able to go to them and trust them with their story and have them hold it and repeat it back and have the conversations back and forth

That's the start and that's what has to happen. And I think when I envision this book, I envision that people take the book and they pass it openly to a friend at a cafe, at a Starbucks. They don't have to hide it anymore. They pass the book and they say, just read this. And then I hope that this book will sit on nightstands and then people will read it and refer back to it.
