Summary
:
This account of Gerry's life after several tragedies in the Sorensen household is about resilience and strength of character, needed to survive the barrage of tests that swept through their lives. Their misfortunes would demolish most people's dreams. Gerry drew on inner resources after an accident that left him a double amputee. This memoir is a celebration of his work to break barriers and open new prospects for others, who were held back by that status quo of outdated attitudes.
