My 44 Wives (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | George Arthur Lareau | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This revealing personal journal exposes the emotional tribulations of a man coping with the extremes of his wife's MPD behaviors. Rebecca was eventually diagnosed not only as a victim of multiple personality disorder, but as the host for 44 separate personalities, probably a record. This journal is not pleasant reading. It is the shocking and heart-wrenching first-hand account of a man driven nearly to madness by his dedication to and love for his wife. Rebecca had been in mental hospitals five times when she met George, and had been given five different diagnoses, none of which was multiple personality disorder. She had not finished high school, had divorced after giving her son up for adoption, and was living in a half-way house. It was only after their first year-and-a-half together that they suspected what her problem actually was, and her diagnosis by the state's leading expert at Massachusetts General Hospital made it a devastating reality. For seven years, George Arthur Lareau battled between his deep love for Rebecca and the tortuous experiences he suffered from their tumultuous relationship.
