OverviewWhen a mobility scooter goes rogue in Las Vegas it was all due to the Spaz Grab. Totally out of control and heading off into a four-lane highway there was nothing else Stacey could do but scream. This is just one of the many adventures that are in store as you read how Paralympian, Stacey Roche rides the roller coaster of her life with cerebral palsy. This book will have you laughing most of the way through as Stacey shows her sense of humour even in the most difficult of times. But there's just enough pull on the heartstrings as she opens up and shows you her vulnerabilities. If you have or know someone with cerebral palsy it will shed light on what life can be like with the right attitude.

Table of ContentsReviewsBrutally and unashamedly honest; taboo smashing; funny; eye opening; courageously personally revealing; articulate; and, particularly if I had CP I suspect, uplifting. - Anna Swindells Just for something different I am going to share this great read. It doesn't matter which page you open it is full of hilarious stories about Paralympian Stacey Roche's life to date. The subtitle and cover illustration gives a subtle indication (well maybe not so subtle) indication to Stacey's attitude to life. The forward is written by Sir Murray Halberg and is testimony to Stacey's mana. Apparently Stacey is now retired but at her young age and the quality of her writing I think that it is more likely that she will be putting 'author' on her passport application for many years to come. - Don Martin Regional Coordinator Northland Brutally and unashamedly honest; taboo smashing; funny; eye opening; courageously personally revealing; articulate; and, particularly if I had CP I suspect, uplifting. - Anna Swindells Just for something different I am going to share this great read.
