BEYOND MY HANDS A Memoir of Grit, Poverty, and Becoming by Sandeep RaoBorn into poverty in Nagpur and living with a disability affecting both hands, Sandeep Rao grows up in a world that looks at his body before it listens to his voice. Every "simple" task takes extra steps. Every dream is questioned. And when he tries to work and stand on his own feet, he discovers a harsh truth: in the private sector, disability often means rejection-and in government systems, the struggle can be just as real.Beyond My Hands is a raw, grounded memoir about dignity, family sacrifice, and the daily discipline it takes to keep moving when life keeps pushing back. This is not a fairytale and not a pity story. It's a life built through adaptation, faith tested by silence, and a stubborn refusal to accept a smaller future.Inside, you'll find: - The reality of growing up poor with a visible disability- The pressure of education when every fee is a crisis- Job rejections shaped by bias, not ability- How technology becomes a tool for independence- The quiet strength of parents who never stop believingIf you've ever been underestimated, this story is for you.
