Описание: Inspired by the life of her mentally-challenged brother, Timmy...Brenda Hawbaker Lewis sets out to take the reader into Timmys irreverent, hysterically funny, and insightful world Filled with Timmy-isms, short stories, and pictures, A Gorgeous Sexy Life is a feel-good book in a trying time, as one reader recently commented. Another reader stated, I simply couldnt put it down
An excerpt from the introduction: I cant remember when my brother Timmy first used the words gorgeous and sexy to describe a cup of coffee or the myriad of other things he loves. It has nothing to do with sexiness or looks, but everything to do with appreciating the simple goodness of life In that, Timmy seems to live a gorgeous and sexy life. Timmy, carries a genetic mutation, called Fragile X Syndrome which limits his ability to read or even tie his own shoes. Yet, where Timmy lags behind in some areas, he seems to excel in the areas that really count; loving and serving others.
Written in topical chapters, describing Timmys take on the world, the following is an excerpt from the Chapter, Timmys Take on Marriage and Sex: People marry to keep each other warm Though Timmy is content as a bachelor, his answer to why people get married always seems to make women sigh and swoon. Yet if Timmy is asked why he isnt married, he will emphatically state one of two things: either I dont need to get married...Im warm enough or Women cost too much
Comments from recent readers: I really needed this book , I need more Timmy in my life , The world would be so much better if we were all like Timmy This is a great gift book to brighten someones day I place my book on the coffee table for my daily dose of laughter and wisdom. I smiled the entire time I read A Gorgeous Sexy Life
