One year after losing her husband of many years to a sudden brain bleed, Rachael Lundin did something that made perfect sense to no one but her: she packed a floor-length gala gown, four books, and one amazing sleeping bag, and flew to Mongolia to ride 700 kilometers across the Gobi Desert on horseback. She wasn't running away. She was trying to find out if she was still there. Mongolian Love Letters is the true story of the Gobi Gallop—the longest annual charity ride on the planet—told by a woman who arrived exhausted, grieving, and uncertain she had any business being there.

As the brain develops, high levels of "phenylalanine" can lead to severe intellectual hinderance, neurological conditions, and a failure to thrive. Everyone is tested for PKU shortly after birth, as it is passed on genetically.
