A Short Walk Home: One Family’s Journey with ALD

Exploring the full extent to which a disease like adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) can shape and affect a life, A Short Walk Home alternates between anecdotes from David Cry’s personal history with the illness, and a loving, heartfelt account of helping his stepson Logan through his final months. As both Cry and his family come to grips with the inevitable conclusion to their struggles, a greater understanding is reached, one which allows them to move towards a place of peace at their son’s eventual passing. Presented in prose both simple and true, A Short Walk Home shows us how to find peace and acceptance–at a time when we need it most.
