Joanne's Story

Angebote / Angebote:

Joanne was an amazing young woman who did not let her illness define her. From the minute she entered this world her life was a challenge and she met it head on. This is her story. A tale of courage and optimism that is inspiring. For her there was always something just around the corner, whether it was a night out with her pals or a trip to a concert, there was always something driving her on. How tempting it must have been to have accepted what at times seemed inevitable ….. not her!!! She grabbed life by the throat, lived it to the full and squeezed out of it every possible experience. She was a truimph of the human spirit. In many ways I was in awe of her and of that that dazzling smile that lit up a room. It is a wonderful story told by a mother whose devotion and support of her daughter knew no bounds. You will be moved at times to laughter and to tears. As you read it you will wonder what kept Joanne and her Mum going and how they triumphed over obstacles that seemed insurmountable. I don't think Joanne ever realised the effect she had on all who met her, what an inspiration she was to all who knew her and the admiration we had for her. Her influence extended beyond her family, her friends and even her own community. She was just unique and equally unique was a mother who cared for her, for this is also her story. I defy you to read this book and not be moved. I defy you not to say to yourself.." never will I again complain about life's little annoyances." It is a story of the triumph of the human spirit, a mother's love and a young woman's attempt to overcome every obstacle…. In short its a must read! Just have your tissues handy…. You will need them for your tears .. and laughter!
