Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Down Syndrome has never defined Suzy Beckham. Unlike many kids her own age, the bubbly High School Senior is comfortable in her own skin, content with who she is. If you’re fortunate enough to engage in a conversation with her, you’ll be hard-pressed to leave without a smile on your face and a bear hug from the hug master herself. Sherry Tinsdale is a star in the cheerleading world. Leading her squad to three national titles in only ten years, there simply is not anyone with a better resume among high school coaches. She and her husband have built a nice home in the small town of Gilmerton, Georgia. But personal tragedy has strangled the life out of the once vibrant coach. At only 33 years of age, life has become more grind than gift. While striving to keep up a good front to those around her, she immerses herself into the job, hoping that - as she stays constantly occupied - the deep hurt within will one day fade away. Sherry's world takes a surprising turn when a Special Ed teacher asks if one of his disabled students could fulfill her personal dream and join the elite cheer squad. After initially rejecting the idea as absurd, Sherry has a change of heart, allowing the girl with the endearing smile to join her team. While the Coach battles the pain of her past, the new cheerleader has her own challenges to overcome if she is to ever see the field. Ultimately it seems beyond coincidence that their paths have crossed, and no one could ever imagine the profound impact this Down Syndrome girl would have on her coach as she becomes part of the Legend of Suzy High Kick.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson Born with severe brain defects, Suzy was sentenced to a life of “nevers.” With the unwavering support of her mother, Jane, and extended family, Suzy’s miraculous journey has given many experts reason to question the medical textbooks that have been written. From predictions that she would never walk, talk, or function in society, Suzy overcame all these obstacles with determination and perseverance—not even allowing final-stage renal failure at the age of twenty-four to deter her. This book is not just a tribute to Suzy, but a roadmap for all parents experiencing the challenges of raising a child with disabilities and/or medical issues. Never a victim, Suzy proceeded through infant stimulation, studies in public and specialized schools, and summer programs geared to the disabled community. Her achievements include winning medals during the Tournament of Champions, performing in a dance recital, celebrating a Bat Mitzvah, living independently, and holding a position as a classroom assistant for the past twenty-three years. Her joy of life to this day, offers us hope while showing us that giving up is not a choice. While her IQ score identifies Suzy with severe intellectual disabilities, she never ceases to show kindness, empathy, selflessness, and compassion for others. Told with the hope that other parents will learn from her successes, and failures, this is also a story of the power of perseverance, courage, and love.

Book excerpt: Meredith Cunningham had led a charmed life and been financially supported by her parents through private school, University and well into adulthood. She had established herself as a successful businesswoman who expected everyone to do what she wanted. This had worked quite well for her until her parents, Ken and Margaret, made a life changing decision. They had their property on the market and the price would be sufficient to buy a luxury motor home in which to travel around Australia. They felt it was time they did what they wanted to do, not what their daughter thought they should. The idea of supporting herself financially was not attractive to Meredith and she set out to find someone who would keep her in the manner she thought she deserved. Foster Browne was chosen and pursued by her because he was good-looking, successful and they made a handsome couple who would be featured in the social pages. Foster did not know the real Meredith and was dazzled by her sophistication and immaculate presentation. Her relentless spending caused him great distress and he made a decision that would end this relationship. Meredith then found herself facing a lifestyle she had not even known existed nor did she have the skills to cope with her new reality.
