Amazon Synopsis:
Sickened is the true story of a young girls life. From early childhood Julie Gregory was continually x-rayed, medicated and operated on in the vain pursuit of an illness that was created in her mother's mind. Munchausen by Proxy is the world's most hidden and dangerous form of child abuse - but Julie Gregory not only survived, she escaped the powerful orbit of her mother's madness and rebuilt her life.
An extraordinary story.

Happy Reading!

I didn't really enjoy this book, not so much for the content or subject matter, more that the narrator's voice and outlook irritated me no end. Maybe it should have been called 'victim', as this is evidently how she feels. It is an interesting read, though, from a unique perspective.

RELEASE NOTES:

To release at the minimeet at The Bean, around 1pm.

Picked up at the Bean mini meet on Saturday.

I picked this up after the book group had left on Saturday. I've seen it around before but have never read it yet. Sounds like an interesting and thought provoking story...

The book was passed on to me by a fellow book crossing member. I thought it was a very good read. To think a mother could put her daughter through so much.I will be passing the book onto a friend who is not a member of book crossing.
