The Tell by Amy Griffin

I caught a few snippets of Oprah talking to Amy Griffin, the author of her memoir The Tell, and was intrigued. As a woman roughly the same age, there was so much I could relate to and understand about her story. Certainly not the severity of trauma that she experienced, but she made that understandable, too.
This would be a perfect pairing for Oprah‘s excellent and fascinating book with Dr. Bruce Perry: What Happened to You?  It explains a lot of the science behind what happens to our bodies and brains when we have experienced severe trauma. I think Amy is so brave for telling this story and could help a number of people feel not so alone, and seek help – even if it’s through unconventional methods.
