YMH | An Unexpected Adoption Book Talk & Signing 作者對談與簽書會

From overcoming adversity to embracing difference, their story is a moving testament to courage, compassion, and unconditional love. Hear how Tina and Rog helped Mui find acceptance and confidence, and how Mui grew to celebrate her uniqueness and become the world's first award-winning athlete with Harlequin ichthyosis. Together, they reveal how life's most difficult experiences can be transformed into strength, purpose, and hope, showing that childhood trauma and conquering happiness can become a powerful catalyst for growth and healing. The session will be followed by a book signing and an opportunity to meet the family. 這是一個女人不平凡的個人旅程的故事—她逃離了過去沉重的創傷，並在此過程中，幫助一名被遺棄的孩子逃離她自己的創傷。蒂娜（Tina）所經歷的暴力與虐待並沒有使她變得堅強；真正令她堅強的，是她如何回應這些暴力與虐待。蒂娜在羅格（Rog）的陪伴下，在自己創傷的廢墟中找到了為梅（Mui）奮鬥的力量。 梅是一名脾氣暴躁、外貌被外界視為奇特的孤兒女嬰。幫助梅滿足她渴望被愛的需求，讓梅為自己擁有罕見的、會改變外貌的皮膚狀況而自豪，為自己能坦然面對心理健康問題而感到欣慰，並為擁有現在的生活而感到幸運—這說明只要運用得當，童年創傷與戰勝幸福也可以成為一股強大的力量。
