Living with a disability has provided me with a lot of obstacles to negotiate and quite often they can lead to quirky adventures. My story blends humour with touching honesty to paint a picture of living with disability and the experiences that come with it.
During my life I have dealt with brain damage which caused my Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy. My parents were told I wouldn’t live beyond sixteen but I did. Many other events took place during the first twenty-six years of my life which I feel qualifies me to write this book.
My writing aspires to tackle the stigma of disability and show that disabled people can live full lives. I would like to provide hope to disabled people and those touched by disability. I really see publishing my auto-biography as an opportunity to illustrate that disabled people are not defined by their condition.
I am a first time author who lives in Peterborough. I have Cerebral Palsy that was caused by a brain injury at birth. I run my own cleaning business and I coach hand-cycling.ver menos
