A Mother's Purpose

Felicia McCardy · 2016
77/100
👍 Worth It

Felicia McCardy writes from lived experience about mothering a child with a disability — the daily endurance it requires, the love that sustains it, and the hard truth that motherhood is a journey rather than a destination. Reader responses describe the book as 'sadly and beautifully told,' and the emotional authenticity comes through clearly even in a book with a modest footprint. That authenticity is the real strength: McCardy writes from her heart, not from theory. The honest caveat is that this is a self-published title with very limited critical coverage and distribution, so the editorial infrastructure is minimal. For parents navigating caregiving for a disabled child who want a voice that has been there, this is worth finding.
