So You Want My Handicapped Parking Place chronicles the
complicated, and often humorous experiences of one man's journey
through life in a wheelchair. Having contracted polio as a baby and
being the last of a pastor's six children, Mario Ferrante struggled
to carve out his identity as a young man and grow up to enter the
professional world, start a family, and pursue the American dream
like everyone else. Despite society's continual questioning and the
seemingly insurmountable challenges thrown at him, Ferrante takes
the world head-on persevering to earn two master's degrees, one in
Business Administration and another in vocal performance. He has
gone on to enjoy much success: becoming a CEO, working as a
director of a Fortune Five Hundred company, traveling to Europe and
the Caribbean, serving his community as a music pastor, all in
addition to being happily married for almost thirty years and
raising two kids. Ferrante's stories, organized by chapters with
titles like "Curiosity," "Mishaps," "Vegetables," and "Naysayers,"
demonstrate a unique perspective to the physical and social
challenges of people living with disabilities. His tenacious
pursuit of a "normal" life will make you laugh, cry, and ultimately
offers inspiration for how to overcome all kinds of obstacles.
