The Bees: Once you escape, how do you heal? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781738967339)

Rachel has come a long way from a small farming town in Southern Ontario to be a successful Project Manager in construction. She owns a beautiful home in downtown Kitchener with her adoring husband and two children. If everything seems too good to be true, it's because it is. Rachel has a dark past.

Post-traumatic stress disorder has a way of resurfacing at random, inconvenient times, triggered at seemingly benign moments.

As trauma from the past overwhelms her, she is comforted by her husband, Wes. Rachel escaped an abusive relationship and a separate assault, and shortly thereafter had two miscarriages and a harsh transition to motherhood. How can she navigate raising a family while memories of pain haunt her?

With this bold and deeply personal book, Rachel delivers a heart-wrenching memoir that breaks the stigma on many issues women face. The Bees is an unforgettable book of healing and growth.
