Discovering Debbie

by Donna J George

A surprise pregnancy, an untimely birth, Debbie came into the world three months too soon. This book follows her life, first as she struggles to survive, and then as she slowly progresses through childhood - every day impacting the lives of her family and everyone around her. Written through the eyes of her mother, Donna, it is also her story coping with an atypical child and searching for answers – Why she was born prematurely? What caused her disabilities? What will her quality of life be? It is only after her daughter becomes an adult that Donna finally finds the answers to these life-long questions and discovers the real reasons for the barriers Debbie overcame to emerge as a person whose life is worth living.
