Description
Julie Woods found herself in a hospital waiting room terrified of what was coming next. The overwhelming fear of the unknown became her reality one March day in 1997 when she was diagnosed as legally blind. As a mother of two she had no idea how she was going to cope. This self help book takes the reader on an intimate journey of her life from it's lowest point in the waiting room of Dunedin Public Hospital to the celebrations of her 10 years blind party. With hilarious tales that include being tricked by a local store owner to refereeing a game of nude touch rugby, this autobiographical tale will not only have you laughing and crying but most of all will leave you inspired. Discover the 8 keys Julie's identified for adapting to extraordinary change so you too can make your very own silver lining. Foreword written by Jo Seagar.
