About the Book
By writing this book I experienced a freedom to express my emotions and feelings. To communicate freely without the restrictions that my impaired speech places on me. My parents ignored advice to put me in an institution when I was young and I have dedicated my life to honour them in an attempt to make them proud of me. “When walking, I stagger; when writing I fly“
About the Author
I have been living with cerebral palsy for 63 years and now share my life with my beautiful dog Marley in Sydney Australia. One of my greatest achievements was winning two medals at the Paralympics whilst representing my wonderful country in Para Equestrian Dressage. I have had the honour of competing in two Paralympic Games and many International competitions overseas. I am a proud Australian and a fierce advocate for the rights of people with disabilities. I am blessed by my many friends, both four and two legged. I love horses, dogs, in fact all animals and am often rewarded by their unconditional love in my life.
