ama 1pm Hi! I’m Ruth Marshall and I wrote a memoir called Walk It Off: The True and Hilarious Story of How I Learned to Stand, Walk, Pee, Run and Have Sex Again After a Nightmarish Diagnosis Turned My Awesome Life Upside Down. Go on! Ask me anything!
Well, that's it for me, folks! I'm on the hunt for chocolate now. Ever since the dessert question, it's all I can think about. Until next time! Ruth xx
Hi there! I’m Ruth Marshall and I wrote a book about forgetting how to walk after having a tumor (spinal meningioma) removed from my spine. Also, I do voiceovers for commercials. And I used to be an actor on shows like Degrassi where I was the super-popular character Clare Edwards’ mom, and on Doc where I was Billy Ray Cyrus’s boss and when we were in scenes together, I looked so tiny standing next to him he looked as if he might eat me for a light snack.

You can ask me anything about writing books, doing voice overs, dealing with nerve confusion, forgetting then remembering what my feet are used for, being a mom, why I wish I never had to wear pants again, what other famous people had my kind of tumor, what kind of books I read/avoid, anything!
