About this audiobook

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 My mother, Cloerinda Jean Johnson Porter-Ford, was born with a degenerative neurological condition that no doctor or specialist could name. She had to wait until the civil rights movement to sue for medical malpractice, and even then, the courts did not care about black lives. #2 My mother was born with a disability, and she was treated like a outcast throughout her elementary school years. She was eventually saved by William Ellis Porter, who married her on a wager. #3 I spent my childhood in a house full of women: my mother, Grandma, and Aunt Dot. My mother and I shared the attic, which provided us with some privacy and the opportunity to bond as a single mother and her child. #4 My mother and I moved to Pittsburgh in 1976. I was excited to start first grade, but my mother was sad. She was always sad. She was afraid of the people who made fun of how she walked.
