My Year of Separation is a book containing a series of essays about the year I moved out of my family home and lived on my own for the first time in 25 years. I successfully stayed married and connected fully to my children, friends, and family—while healing emotionally from the near death of my eldest son.
October 30, 2016 was the fated date. My son is recovered. I am more resilient than I ever thought possible.
The book includes a limited number of hand-drawn illustrations such as the one below.
Here is one review:
A bold, impressive journey—the journey being the point.
Gibbs' longtime craving, a hiatus from others' needs and her own expectations, proved to be bumpy, courageous and raw. Deliberately exposing herself by her determination to journal through it, with candid honesty she revealed her extreme vulnerability, the strength to accept her own imperfections, and, perhaps the most difficult—to allow love in—of strangers, loved ones, and particularly of herself. She bravely stepped through her own looking glass. There's a saying floating around, nowadays: What others think about you is none of your business. This was a gift of one person's emergence. Kudos. —Nancy
