Lyle McKeany

Lyle is a son, brother, husband and father. He’s a bass guitar player and blogger. 

He’s in the process of writing his first book - a memoir about his rocky introduction to fatherhood, the powerful love he has for his family and the incredible challenges he’s faced.

Lyle learns that his daughter has cerebral palsy due to the lack of oxygen to her brain when she was born. His life and the life of his family has been thrust into a world of specialists, and an adjusted view of the future.
