Summary
Details

Grief. Frustration. Gratitude. Humor.

These are just some of the emotions Ruth Grant-Bailey, her son, Mason, and their family have experienced throughout Mason's twenty-some years of living with cerebral palsy.

In her debut novel, Ruth shares her experience of raising a child with a disability, while Mason offers a glimpse into what it's like to live with one. Their candor about the struggle to give Mason an independent, ""normal"" life and their differing views on what that might look like are both eye-opening and entertaining.

A Muddy Life is full of twists and turns, some infuriating, some sad, and others downright hilarious. Come along for the ride!
