About Me...

My name is Oatie, I have Cerebral Palsy, I won't let it define me or dictate what I will achieve in my life, I will walk and I will ice skate. I love speaking English and French. My family and I are doing ABR (advanced bio-mechanical rehabilitation).

Ceramic To Clay

written by: Sharon Dzialo

Ceramic To Clay - the Book

Welcome:

“There is some brain activity,” the neurologist stated somberly. A near-drowning upended the life of 12 year old Adam Dzialo. Three weeks on a ventilator, six weeks in a rehab hospital, and then home. The previously healthy, vibrant boy returned to his family, rigid as a board, nonverbal, tube-fed, and severely traumatized. He would scream without sound and cry without tears.

The book is available from all fine bookstores order your copy today:

ISBN: 9781608447589
152 pages

Or visit Amazon.com or Amazon.ca
