Wheeling Through a Life of Possibilities

Wheeling Through a Life of Possibilities: My First Thirty Years of Overcoming Obstacles with the Determination and the Courage to Succeed chronicles the journey of author Lauren Shipman's first thirty years of living with cerebral palsy (CP). Readers will share her challenges and triumphs and bear witness to how CP never prevented her from living life to the fullest. Follow along as Lauren transforms from an extremely shy and quiet child to a confident young adult. After a pivotal push to get outside her comfort zone, she did the hard work to discover her true potential, determination, and ability to change. Lauren's transformation enabled others to see beyond her physical disability. With her positive attitude and resilient spirit, she turned the difficulties of living with a physical disability into triumph. She achieved goals that many deemed impossible-walking across the stage to receive her college diploma and working in the childcare field-just to name a few!
