The Restless City Reader
This beautifully-written memoir brings us into the family of men and women who carry DMD, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. I read this book a number of years ago and re-read it this week. Not often do I feel myself at the brink of tears when reading, not often do I smile at the tender successes. I loved this memoir.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a genetic disease that is passed from mother to son, is usually diagnosed in young boys and usually leaves them wheel-chair bound before they are ten. And that is only the sad beginning of their decline. Although there has been some progress with something called an exon - skipping gene therapy that helps with some forms of the disease, there is still no cure.
Christine Kehl O'Hagan lost her brother and her son to the disease and brings the reader into the journey with great tenderness, with great rawness but with a stalwart and pitiless honesty. Nothing has touched me quite this deeply in ages.
