Suffer Quietly

Book excerpt: After narrowly escaping injury from a harrowing car accident, Sari found the clarity to complete her memoir. “When I realized I could’ve died that day, going to my grave with all my secrets, I knew that was no longer an option. I had to finally share my story.” In Suffer Quietly, Sari takes readers through her life via journal entries spanning 40 years, offering a deep and fascinating look into the mind of an anxious, analytical and unapologetic woman, as she overcomes not only childhood sexual and mental abuse by family members, but also cancer and other challenges. Sari’s vulnerable and frank accounts of her too-many-to-count struggles – and ultimately her triumphs – will inspire readers to move past their own pain and darkness, and realize there IS hope and light and healing. Sari is a bright new voice about profound suffering. Her story is one of perseverance, resilience, survival and powerful honesty. Readers will witness the enduring love and support of her husband, Tracy, and learn that there is nothing these two can’t face together, and overcome. The strength Sari develops over her lifetime allows her the fortitude to step out from the desolate shadows, into a brighter, fulfilling existence!
