Description

For many parents feeding their children is easy and instinctive For others though it is on the same spectrum in which Debi Lewis found herself part of what felt like an endless slog to move her daughter from failuretothrive to something that looked if not like thriving at least like survival The emotional weight of not being able to feed ones child feels like a betrayal of the most basic aspect of nurturing While every faux matzo ball every proteinpacked smoothie that tasted like a milkshake every new lentil dish that her daughter liked made Lewiss spirit rise every dish pushed away made it sink

Kitchen Medicine tells the story of how Lewis made her way through mothering and feeding a sick child aided by Lewiss growing confidence in front of the stove Its about how she eventually saw her role as more than caretaker and fighter for her daughters health and how she had to redefine what motheringand feedinglooked like once her daughter was well This is the story of learning to feed a child who cant seem to eat Its the story of growing love for food a mirror for people who cook for fuel and those who cook for love for those who see the miracle in the growing child and in the fresh peach for matzoball lovers and the glutenintolerant and for parents who want to feed their kids without starving their souls
