description: One early morning, a mother, two brothers, and a family pet leave on vacation to return to their favorite place on earth. French Toast, A White Cane and Memories is more than just a story about a family vacation. With the amusing antics of Chase, the seriousness of his older brother, Bo, and the single mother who tries to hold the family together, this important trip to the Pacific Ocean turns into an epiphany for an older brother. Raising a child with a disability requires courage and stamina. Parents of disabled children learn to hope for the best and expect the worst. When a child has a rare and incurable disease, sometimes hope seems elusive and somehow always beyond our grasp. This novel is based on the true story of a young boy (age 9) who is losing his eyesight because of the devastating effects of the rare and incurable disease, retinitis pigmentosa. With hope that this story will help raise awareness of childhood blindness, French Toast, A White Cane and Memories was written not only for the two children in this book, but for the countless other families who were blessed with less than perfect children. Come along with Lucy, Bo, and Chase as they travel from central California to the very depths of the human heart.
