When Love is Not Enough — Pat Engebrecht

When Love Is Not Enough Chronicles of LauraJo is a first-person account of a young woman suffering from the emotional disorder Borderline Personality (BPD.) The story is told by LuaraJo (LJ) from meticulous journals she kept during the ten years of her ordeal (1976/86) and her mother's commentary. It has taken her mother, a partner in her daughter's journey, over twenty years to get the courage to read her daughter's journals, all numbered in preparation for this book, the one LJ intended to write. The journal entries included in this book have been selected to illustrate the different aspects of LauraJo's personality, and experiences: emotional, humor, sexual, medical and religious. Her personal artwork, sculptures, poems, songs as well as pictures of family and friends are included. This is a family journey...a family who loved when love was not enough.
