Williams began life at war with her body. "There were tubes everywhere, in and out of every opening," her mother reminded her on every anniversary of her surgery. Autobiography of a Sea Creature takes readers on Williams' difficult sensory journey toward healing, as she communes along the way with horseshoe crabs, dolphins, and other marine life that taught her the restorative power of beauty, resilience, and interdependence. At times luscious and lyrical, at other times analytical and reflective, this literary memoir portrays the dissociative experience of trauma and the roots of self-destructive cycles, as well as the tragic results of medical beliefs at the time that infants could not feel pain. Autobiography of a Sea Creature is both a love letter to the earth and a hopeful testament of humans' capacity to heal our deepest wounds."--$cPublisher's description. 606 $ainfants$2aat 606 $aNouveau-nes 606 $aNourrissons 606 $aAutotherapie 606 $aE?tat de stress post-traumatique 606 $aInfant, Newborn 606 $aInfant 606 $aSelf Care 606 $aResilience, Psychological 606 $aAdult Survivors of Child Adverse Events 606 $aAdverse Childhood Experiences 606 $aStress Disorders, Post-Traumatic 606 $aPyloric Stenosis$xsurgery 606 $aNewborn infants 606 $aInfants 606 $aSelf-care, Health 606 $aPost-traumatic stress disorder 608 $aAutobiographies. 608 $aautobiographies (literary works) 608 $aAutobiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$ainfants. 615 6$aNouveau-nes. 615 6$aNourrissons. 615 6$aAutotherapie. 615 6$aE?tat de stress post-traumatique. 615 22$aInfant, Newborn 615 22$aInfant 615 22$aSelf Care 615 22$aResilience, Psychological 615 12$aAdult Survivors of Child Adverse Events 615 12$aAdverse Childhood Experiences 615 12$aStress Disorders, Post-Traumatic 615 12$aPyloric Stenosis$xsurgery 615 0$aNewborn infants. 615 0$aInfants. 615 0$aSelf-care, Health. 615 0$aPost-traumatic stress disorder. 700 $aWilliams$b Wendy Patrice$01771492 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910882997803321 996 $aAutobiography of a Sea Creature$94261762 997 $aUNINA
