For millions of men and women throughout the world, Carol Brady is synonymous with motherhood, but growing up as the youngest of 10 children in rural Indiana in the aftermath of the fantastic Depressive disorder, Florence Henderson lived a life quite different from that of the quintessential Television set mommy she later played out on television set. Florence's father was a dirt-poor tobacco tenant farmer who was simply almost 50 years old when he committed Florence's 25-year-old mom, and was almost 70 when Florence was created. Florence's child years was packed with deprivation and abandonment. Her father was an alcoholic at a time when there is no treatment or help for the disease. Their home rarely had electricity or working normal water. When she was 12, Florence's mom remaining the family to work in Cleveland rather than returned. Florence opens up about her child years, as well as the obstacles she's faced as an adult, including stage fright, postpartum unhappiness, her extramarital affairs, divorce, her reading loss, and heart disease. She creates with honesty and wisdom of how her faith and ability to survive has brought her through tough times to a life of serious joy and purpose.
