As a child, Diann Kissell endured years of sexual abuse from her father and lost many of her family members to murder when she was 13. Against all odds, she's lived a joyful life and raised a loving family of more than 5-children and 25-grand-children. Kissel has told her story in her co-authored biography "A Turquoise Life," on the Oprah Winfrey show in 1987, and here on the podcast hosted by her daughter, Mandy Johnson, joined by Dr. Betsy Cairo.
