The Way Life Is Book

Being in love and full of anticipation of a great life does not shield young couples from unfair and unexpected challenges and trauma. This book is not an elaborate "how-to" or "self-help" manual for when the going gets rough. It's just a true story about a couple that continued to put one foot in front of the other when they would rather have given up; it's about love and faith and standing fast against adversity.

The Way Life Is takes readers into the home of a young couple trying to accommodate their own needs, desires and demons while coping with the special needs of their children: Sara, born with a rare and life threatening disability known as Prader-Willi Syndrome; Gina, who arrived needing open-heart surgery in order to survive; and Andrew, an active and exceptionally healthy little boy stuck in the middle.
