Summary
Details

Just Add Salt offers a raw and inspiring look at a single mother's fight to save her daughter while finding strength through creativity, family, and food.

Grace Rose was born with Cystic Fibrosis, a progressive disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other vital organs. Her battle with the condition shapes a story of perseverance, as her mother, Leah, navigates the daily challenges of raising a child with a life-threatening illness.

The title reflects the genetic salt imbalance in those with CF, emphasizing the vital role of food and nutrition in their journey.

Weaving fashion, philanthropy, and theater into their lives as creative survival tools, Leah and Grace Rose redefine what's possible for those with CF. The book explores their evolving relationship, the medical advancements enabling new independence, and the healing power of shared meals.

Set against the backdrop of New Orleans, Los Angeles, and New York, Just Add Salt blends memoir with recipes, offering a testament to strength, hope, and the unbreakable bond between mother and daughter.
