My Time to Stand

A Memoir

, ,

A victim of her mother’s Munchausen by proxy and child abuse survivor, Gypsy-Rose Blanchard’s unique and controversial case made headlines across the world.Now, she’s finally free to start living her life on her terms—and to tell her own story as only she can.Forced to use a wheelchair in public and endure a lifetime of faux illness, fraud, and exploitation, Gypsy was subjected not only to her mother’s medical, physical, and emotional abuse, but deprived of childhood milestones. Prevented from attending school or socializing, Gypsy’s formative years were defined by pain and isolation.After serving eight years in prison for the role she played in her mother Dee Dee’s murder, Gypsy is embracing her fresh start—and reminding all of us that it’s nevertoo late.In this revelatory, harrowing, and ultimately hopeful memoir, Gypsy shares the painful realities she grew up with and the details of her life that only she knows, including:• The abusive cycle that began with Dee Dee’s abuse by her father• Gypsy’s fear that continued unnecessary surgery would leave her truly disabled• How she coped with guilt and accepted responsibility for her mother’s death• Memories of her final days in prison• What she learned upon reviewing her own medical records for the first time• How it felt to finally see her family again as her authentic selfFeaturing new facts about Gypsy’s life that she previously kept private, My Time to Stand offers an unprecedented look at the real Gypsy-Rose Blanchard, proudly embarking on her ongoing journey to recovery and self-discovery.
