Synopsis

Save Your Prayers - Send Money boldly takes on the wellness industry, considering disability politics through the lived experience of a seventy-year-old Métis woman and recovering New Ager. Weaving intergenerational trauma and its impact on health through the author's experience of living with chronic pain and illness, these poems explore where healing might lie and how a peace might be found whether we heal or not. The weft supporting all of this is the importance of belonging, of blood memory and cellular memory reaching back to our earliest Ancestors.
