After years of questioning what was wrong with herself, she was diagnosed with complex PTSDa condition that occurs when trauma happens continuously, over the course of years.
Both of Foos parents abandoned her when she was a teenager, after years of physical and verbal abuse and neglect. She thought shed moved on, but her new diagnosis illuminated the way her past continued to threaten her health, relationships, and career.

In this deeply personal and thoroughly researched account, Foo interviews scientists and psychologists and tries a variety of innovative therapies. She returns to her hometown of San Jose, California, to investigate the effects of immigrant trauma on the community, and she uncovers family secrets in the country of her birth, Malaysia, to learn how trauma can be inherited through generations. Ultimately, she discovers that you dont move on from traumabut you can learn to move with it.
Powerful, enlightening, and hopeful, What My Bones Know is a brave narrative that reckons with the hold of the past over the present, the mind over the bodyand examines one womans ability to reclaim agency from her trauma.
