- Synopsis
- The author recounts her struggles and joys as the single mother of two daughters, one of whom has severe multiple disabilities. Born with a mitochondrial disease that causes blindness, seizures, and impairments in speech as well as motor and intellectual development, Elizabeth requires many hospitalizations and intensive full-time care when she is at home. The author writes about her struggles to obtain the help she needs and how, through her life with Elizabeth, she builds a career as a disability lawyer. She writes frankly about dealing with her grief after Elizabeth's death.
