On her deathbed, May revealed an astonishing secret to her daughter, a secret so shameful that she never even shared it with her husband. In her youth, May was falsely institutionalized. This powerful true story chronicles her daughter's quest to discover the truth about her mother's nightmarish past. Betrayed by her abusive father, May was wrongly diagnosed by a probate court. In 1930, the shy seventeen-year-old was put on a train and taken to the Institute for the Feeble-Minded in Columbus, Ohio. May spent the next six years in that horrible prison with no hope of escaping. Her fortune changed when a staff member and May's cousin worked together to break her out. May finally had a shot at a normal life and found happiness through family and friends. I Can Forgive, Cannot Forget honors May's courageous life and sheds a harsh light on the state of America's mental healthcare in the 1930s.
