Summary of Heather Harpham's Happiness

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 When I breathed in my daughter, a straight, bright path lit up the center of my brain. Every neuron said yes, yes, yes, yes, this is the one. This reaction is hardwired. Animals identify their offspring by scent. #2 I was terrified of hospitals because I didn’t know anything about them. I had never imagined threats to my future children, but I was protected from the possibility by the fact that it had never occurred to me. #3 I had a happy childhood, but I had not expected that to translate into a happy adult life. I had assumed that my adult life would be free of adversity. The optimism of youth had somehow lasted until thirty, thirty-one even. #4 The doctor told me that my baby had high levels of something in her blood, and that she was at risk of brain damage or death. I asked what was wrong with her, and the doctor said she was at risk of rust head.
