Damn Lucky

Being adopted can be unsettling or awkward. It can be a mystery that you want to unravel. Or it can just be part of your DNA.Having a handicapped child can be terrifying, especially during a time when there wasn''t a lot of information to search for. For me, it was a matter of gut-inspired decisions that happened to turn out right. When you combine those two elements, you come up with some thought-provoking and sometimes funny life situations. My mother and I had a complicated relationship, until it wasn''t, and the various ways we threaded our way through the years together.And I''ve written about a turbulent marriage that I didn''t understand and yet felt compelled to support, until I couldn''t.I''ve always been good in the art of B.S. and telling a fun story and making it even funnier in hopes of making people laugh.I hope this book inspires you, makes you think, and makes you laugh.
