Born in 1950, Peggy Cook came into the world with clubfeet. Her family focused on spiritual healing through prayer.

 

As she matured she began to question her reliance solely on prayer. In her late thirties she sought out the help of an orthopedic surgeon to correct her feet to improve mobility and comfort. This memoir chronicles her journey from religious indoctrination to individuation. The memoir offers hope that it is never too late to rebuild a life, and experience joy and freedom in a way that acknowledges one’s agency.

 

Peggy is a lover of books, art, writing and travel.
