“The one who dared to speak what everyone else stayed silent about”

Overview

In the mid-1980s, a young rural woman gave birth to a child with physical and intellectual disabilities. She fought persistently for her family's happiness alongside her abusive husband, but her efforts were doomed to fail. More than thirty years have passed since then; the girl has become a woman, yet she has been unable to process her experiences. This is why she started a blog, which quickly gained hundreds of thousands of readers. Éva Péterfy-Novák's story is about moving forward after loss and the process of acceptance in an era and environment where admitting mistakes and living with differences were unwelcome.
