Sensitivity Girl

LuAnn Billett cannot remember a time when she did not feel different from others. She always knew there was something unusual about the way she interacted with people, how she could sense and feel their emotions. Her life as a sensitive child in a small town in the 1970’s was a struggle, but her sensitivity was also a gift.

Early on, and almost systematically, adversity began to strike LuAnn's life. As a child, the dark times began with years of family conflict. As an adult, she would experience the pain of divorce, surviving her spouse's drug overdose, and a high-risk pregnancy. By 35 she would find herself a widowed single mother of three premature babies. To not only survive but thrive, she had to embrace her gift--not only her power of sensitivity, but stubbornness, independence, hope, love, and laughter.

Sensitivity Girl is the true story of one woman's journey, the lessons she learned, and the sidekicks and superheroes she picked up along the way. It is a tale of triumph over tragedy, of embracing one's differences, and of the development of a super woman. It is also about the hidden powers and the hero inside us all.
