"The Attack: From Shattered to Whole" is a memoir that begins in 1984 when I was beaten nearly to death with a glass bottle and raped by a violent psychopath who had broken into my house. It was deeply traumatic on every level, and I buried most of the emotions and denied being raped for nineteen years until a series of surreal, intense flashbacks forced me to face the truth.

Using self-hypnosis, I uncovered my darkest secrets, and as one story led to the next, I could see how the attack influenced my choices and ultimately led to the best things in my life including my daughter, my artwork, Reiki, and becoming the artist, Primal Painter. This was a personal healing exercise written in the form of a raw, uncensored diary, but if sharing my story can help others see that even extreme trauma can end in gratitude, the attack will serve a higher purpose.

The cover is my artwork called "Astral Connection" which represents the otherworldly Being who saved my life during the attack, triggered the flashbacks, and guided my path through a challenging life.

There are themes of violence and trauma, addiction, co-dependency, emotional dissociation, and the many missteps and successes of a challenging life. The underlying theme throughout is the intuitive sparks from the spiritual Being who keeps me flowing on the path of a Higher Purpose.
