An Unexpected Normal is a deeply moving memoir about love, loss, and the redefinition of what it means to live a meaningful life. When her daughter KiKi suffers a devastating brain injury caused by Group B Strep, a mother is thrust into a world she never imagined—one of medical complexity, uncertainty, and profound emotional struggle. As she navigates the realities of raising a nonverbal, quadriplegic child, she also confronts a crisis of faith, questioning how such suffering could exist. Yet, through KiKi's life—filled with connection, resilience, and unexpected joy—she begins to see a different kind of miracle unfold. Supported by a compassionate community, she slowly rebuilds her faith, discovering that love, presence, and human connection can carry her through even the darkest moments. An Unexpected Normal is ultimately a story of transformation—of letting go of expectations, embracing a new reality, and finding purpose in sharing that journey to help others.
