Description
At twenty, Barbara J. Mack’s life was rewritten by a near-tragic car accident and the seizure disorder that followed — at a time when support was scarce and answers scarcer. Just as her seizures began to steady, an unexpected pregnancy brought new challenges, thrusting her into single motherhood in the middle of an already uncertain fight. Through it all, family and friends held the line beside her.
The Hand I’ve Been Dealt is Barb’s telling of that fight — equal parts whimsical family memory and hard-won medical reckoning. It’s a story for anyone learning to live with the hand they didn’t choose.
