Overview

Can you be happy when your body no longer does what it's supposed to do? When every journey begins with a risk assessment and every night ends wondering whether you'll fall trying to reach the toilet? Like many people, for years I assumed the answer was no. Happily Disabled is not a sob-story, nor a handbook of heroic overcoming; just 25 chapters portraying caring, mobility, sex, anxiety, anger, pain, relationships, depression and how the author came to the realisation that happiness doesn't live in working legs or a steady bladder. It lives inside, waiting patiently for us to stop fighting and start listening. If you live with disability, care for someone who does, or simply wonder where happiness hides when life gets hard, this book is for you.
