Synopsis: Here was a man with such pride, a man in his late twenties who could create a beautiful item from nothing. But the truth of the matter was 'My dad was a monster'. This is the true story of one woman's courage in the face of a life full of pain. Abused by her father, bullied at school and neglected by her mother, Lynn Grocott's childhood was a waking nightmare. As an adult, tormented and haunted by her youth, her life went from bad to worse. She was eventually admitted to a psychiatric ward after facing the suicide of both parents. Somehow Lynn crawled back but fate was relentless in its cruelty. She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and virtually wasted away as she battled to overcome Anorexia Nervosa. Yet despite all that life has thrown at her Lynn is an achiever. She's been able to turn things around, reclaim her soul and live life as a winner, fulfilling lifelong dreams and raising money for charity. This is a story that will at times shock and apall you. But beyond that it reminds us all that we have the power to emerge from life's darkest challenges as stronger and happier human beings.
