Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 I remember the time I spent in the hospital as a five-year-old as magical. I was determined to be the best patient ever, and I felt completely comfortable. I had been diagnosed with kidney nephrosis, a life-threatening condition that was little understood at the time.#2 I knew that Ginny was different than other mothers. She didn’t seem like other moms. She was always reaching for whatever was glamorous, and she knew how to put a look together with natural flair. She was always trying to be glamorous.#3 My parents had a relaxed relationship with the truth, but Dad got joy out of getting one over on someone. He would go to pay a check and say to the cashier, I’ll flip you: double or nothing. I was always on guard, on the alert for whether someone was going to get angry.#4 I had a clear sense from early on that I had to look out for my brother, Morgan. We were not exactly helicopter parents, but we moved a lot, and it was difficult for me to make friends.
