Through My Eyes Only

Every family has two versions of the same story. Sometimes, healing begins when we're finally willing to see both.Childhood memories are rarely as simple as they first appear. The moments that shape us are filtered through innocence, fear, misunderstanding, and the limited perspective of youth. Years later, those same memories can reveal entirely different truths.In Through My Eyes Only, Dr. Nancy Rung reflects on her life with remarkable honesty, revisiting the defining moments of her childhood through the eyes of the child who lived them and the wisdom of the adult who survived them. Along the way, she explores the complexities of a mother-daughter relationship shaped by disability, family struggles, societal expectations, religion, poverty, and the misunderstandings that can linger for decades.Rather than offering easy answers, Nancy invites readers into a thoughtful journey of reflection, compassion, and self-discovery. As memories are revisited and perspectives evolve, painful experiences become opportunities for understanding, forgiveness, and peace.Written in the warm, conversational style that readers have come to appreciate, Through My Eyes Only is a deeply personal memoir about resilience, family, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves about the people we love.For anyone who has questioned their past, wrestled with complicated family relationships, or discovered that healing often begins with a new perspective, this memoir offers an honest reminder that understanding doesn't erase the past, but it can transform how we carry it.
