An award winning essayist, S. Michael Scadron now offers his inspirational memoir, Two Mountains: Kilimanjaro to Quadriplegic and Back—a remarkable, everyman story of inner strength, courage and willingness to endure—as well as the fond and funny moments that arise and comfort in the midst of fear.An avid runner and trekker, Michael suffered a rare neurological disorder that rendered him quadriplegic just weeks after he reached the summit of Kilimanjaro. Transformed from an active, vibrant 52-year old into a wheelchair-bound patient who needed assistance to feed, move, relieve and clean his body, Michael faced a strange new world. The story recounts his climb up Kilimanjaro and his unprecedented ascent to walk again.
For anyone suffering hard times in life and seeking inspiration to fight on and win, this book is for you. Michael vividly describes how small events can seemingly mushroom into catastrophe, but shows how a deep desire to persevere can save oneself from the trash heap of permanent despair. Beautifully written with props to his wife, family, and friends- Two Mountains is a must read. You’ll be glad that you did.
