mommy twinkle eyes: letters to my therapist

Discovering I had been abused was a shock, but being diagnosed with multiple personality disorder (MPD) was not. It held its own fascinations, from the way each alter talked, to the type of clothes they liked to wear. They even noticed different things about people. A mere blink of the eyes could mean a different alter was present. It was not an easy job for the therapist. Little Glenda, who was the last alter to make herself known, looked into peoples eyes to see what kind of person they were. She wrote these letters for our therapist, letting her know she hid in the background the whole time. She chose to endear our therapist with the name Mommy Twinkle Eyes.

Glenda L. Hunter is a graduate of Wesley Biblical Seminary, in Jackson, MS, with a M.A. She is currently teaching preschool and is Mission Coordinator in her local church. She and her family reside in Clinton, MS.
