A powerful but not cheery tale. In 1958, when Chana was seven, her mother tried to die by suicide and was given medications and electroshock therapy to try and cure her of the lesbianism that was causing her such anguish. As traumatic as this was, she and her mother eventually found support in each other as Chana came out as a lesbian, too.
