A Toehold on Life

About A Toehold on Life

This book is a combination of the life lived by Mary Simon Wilson with the writing of Lee Morton Taylor. Mary's life story demanded to be written, and Lee felt the need to write it. It is the truly inspiring story of a woman born with no arms who proceeded to live her life ignoring that handicap. Mary and Lee became good friends while attending Taft High School in California, but after graduation their lives diverged greatly. Lee married, raised three children, and taught school for thirty-four years before retiring to the mountains near Yosemite. Mary, on the other hand, lived a life that rivals great roller coasters with their twists and turns and ups and downs. If you've ever felt sorry for yourself, Mary's story will change your mind.
