Bonnie R. Armstrong spent decades as an Apparently Normal Person who knew nothing of the complex dissociative infrastructure that hid much of her childhood from her conscious memory and supported her from within. She functioned as an effective, happy wife, mother, sister, friend, and advocate for children and families.
