The Smiling Mask...

This past week I had the pleasure of sitting at a booth at the Canadian Counseling Association Conference, and ended up meeting two amazing women - Elita Paterson, Tania Bird... two of the authors of the book "The Smiling Mask" written with Carla O'Reilly along with their husbands, and Peggy Collins write an extremely relevant picture of Post-Partum Depression, and its effect on families.

Elita, Tania, and Carla tell their stories which are experiences with Post-Partum Depression in a way which is relevant to all women. Their experiences enable women to take it upon themselves to read and learn about post-partum depression. With their husbands, they are candid in what happened to them, and their healing journey.

I feel its a blessing that I met Elita and Tania, for a variety of reasons - but they have definitely inspired me, and encouraged me to let others know about this book!

You can order it on their website, and $1 from every book is donated to Women's Shelters, Mental Health, YMCA/YWCA, NICU Mother/Baby Units.

Check it out.
