Bound to Love: a memoir of grit and gratitude

My memoir Bound to Love won first prize in the Pacific Northwest Writers Association contest under the name Blood Bond.Bound to Love is the true story of a single mother who encountered and navigated a complicated nightmare for any parent. My child the only child I could ever bear--was born with a life-threatening congenital heart defect and suffered a more brutal health diagnosis soon after. Walk with me as I birth the courage and grit to meet Thoms compounding challenges.The memoir covers Thoms first twenty years as we confront prejudice injustice and a share of compassion as well. This is an important read for any parent who feels alone raising a child with complex disabilities.
