- The dolphin who saved me : how an extraordinary friendship helped me overcome trauma and find hope / by Horrill, Melody,author.;
"When Melody Horrill arrived at university she was a troubled and lost young woman, hiding behind a carefully crafted exterior. She had experienced a childhood of emotional and physical trauma mainly at the hands of her violent father that was as damaging as it was brutal. One day Melody volunteered to help her lecturer monitor pods of river nearby dolphins. There for the first time she encountered Jock, a solitary dolphin with a maimed fin, who lived apart from the highly social pods. Melody was to form a bond with Jock that gave her the key to freeing herself from the demons of her own past, and their extraordinary friendship was the start of a long-term mission to try to save the river dolphins. Beautifully written and filled with insight and compassion, Melody's memoir details her life-changing friendship with the river dolphins, and how Jock helped her to heal."--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Horrill, Melody; Horrill, Melody.; Adult child abuse victims; Animals; Bottlenose dolphin; Dolphins; Human-animal relationships; Mental healing.; Psychic trauma; River dolphins; Self-actualization (Psychology); Victims of family violence; Voluntarism; Wildlife conservation; Women journalists;
