The Which Does Not Kill Us: An Intergenerational Memoir of Legacy Trauma


Overview

For a free family tree bookmark to accompany the book, visit www.marimillerwrites.com We inherit hair, skin, and eye color - as well as susceptibility to certain diseases. But we also inherit trauma. Join the author's journey through her matrilineal line, uncovering how five generations of women faced multiple health challenges and, by avoiding their traumas, unwittingly passed them down. Yet, amidst the legacy of pain, there is always hope that the next generation will break the cycle. ""That Which Does Not Kill Us is a fascinating and heartfelt memoir that takes us on a journey through the physical and mental health of five generations of a family. Using diaries from prior generations, Mari Miller shows how trauma can affect the lives of each succeeding generation, including her own and that of her daughters. The last part of the book is a guide for parents of chronically ill children, using the author's experience advocating for her own daughter. This is a must-read for anyone interested in or seeking to heal their own intergenerational trauma."" -- Cheryl K. Smith, writer, former health information administrator and attorney
