About this listen
This is a story about a mother and son on a road trip along the Pacific Coast of Southern California. Asher is a 19-year-old child/teen/man who is diagnosed with severe cerebral palsy and a visual impairment rendering him nonverbal, wheelchair bound, and visually impaired. Stacey is his devoted mother and a neuropsychologist who specializes in the assessment of children with neurodevelopmental disabilities.
Along the way, Asher and Stacey experience some unique challenges encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual realms, some of which are absolutely ridiculous and almost too hard to believe and some that are truly heart wrenching. Asher and Stacey also cross paths with a variety of characters, some of whom are completely clueless about how to be around someone with disabilities and others who are friendly, kind, and share a piece of their bright spirit.
Since Stacey is all alone with her son, who is twice her size, just getting Asher onto a hotel bed or showering him without the help of her husband turns into a comedy of errors in an I Love Lucy kind of way. Somehow, they each survive this quirky road trip in one piece but their love and understanding for each other evolves to the deepest level that a mother and son could ever aspire to....
