No One Said Life Was Fair: How Bumpy Got His Name and Other Brief Encounters with the Criminally Inept, the Emotionally Bankrupt and the Sobriety ... Twisted Albeit Lovingly Dysfunctional Family

In March, 1995 an emergency room doctor told Dad he only had twelve hours left to live if he did not have his leg amputated. He refused to have the surgery. As my sisters and I sat helplessly in the waiting room at Cook County Hospital pondering his fate, I could not help but wonder, "How the hell did we get here?" Please join me as I recall the crazy times we had together, Dad's insane antics, and his bizarre pearls of wisdom. Fasten your seat belts ladies and gentlemen, it's going to be a "bumpy" ride! "No One Said Life Was Fair" is a collection of poignant and humorous autobiographical anecdotes, family stories, and poetry about growing up in an alcoholic family.
