Still Broken : A Memoir (9781532030772)



In April of 1989, author Leonora Diepenbeck was in her prime; she was living a normal and fulfilling life. But it all changed that day she was struck by a truck, leading to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and a multitude of adversities and losses in every aspect of her life. In Still Broken, Diepenbeck shares how severe trauma, such as her accident, can have a negative impact on one's life and livelihood. As a result, depression is only one of the multitude of manifestations of physical and mental suffering. Using her personal experiences as a backdrop, she addresses the consequences of PTSD and some of the bizarre symptoms and afflictions associated with it. In this memoir, Diepenbeck tells how she persevered with minimal rehabilitation or compensation for her losses and how she sought justice for her trials. Advocating an all-encompassing health plan, which includes guidance and counseling, she discusses how she has endured the lasting effects of PTSD.

In her early years she lived on milk and bread under the Kensington system; in her old age she suffered constant indigestion yet continued to over-eat. From intimate breakfasts with the King of France, to romping at tea-parties with her children, and from state balls to her last sip of milk, her life is examined through what she ate, when and with whom. In the royal household, Victoria was surrounded by ladies-in-waiting, secretaries, dressers and coachmen, but below stairs there was another category of servant: her cooks.
