Description: On Christmas Day 1948, Janet was born into absence. Her mother was in a sanitarium. Her biological father came to the hospital and brought his girlfriend. At eighteen months, she was returned from a foster home to a mother who did not know how to love her — and collapsed behind a door, sobbing, inconsolable. She didn't understand until she was in her sixties that she had been running from that door her entire life.
