When Holly learned she was having a girl, and long before she heard the words Asperger’s syndrome or chronic disease, she was already committed to raising Britney to love God and seek His will in her life with integrity. Determined to follow her lead, support her decisions, provide her with unconditional love, and do whatever she could to help her succeed, Holly had no idea of the journey she and Britney were about to take together.
In a moving retelling of her beloved daughter’s life experiences, Holly intertwines Britney’s words with her own while leading others through her memories as her daughter was diagnosed with Hans Asperger’s syndrome at age three and other physical ailments later that left her in a courageous battle with her body for twenty years. As she relays their experiences, both joyful and heartbreaking, Holly offers an inspiring glimpse into how Britney fought through every day to eventually become accepted into Texas A&M where she would leave a legacy that touched thousands.
Well, Actually …Thank you, Momma is an inspiring true story of unimaginable hardship trumped by unbelievable blessings that illustrates the determination of a young woman to attain her dreams and fill her dash despite her physical challenges.
