Ruth Merry was born disabled with Arthogryposis and has spent her life in a wheelchair. An avid swimmer and skier Ruth's dream, was to one day tackle the Bobsleigh. This is the incredible true story of how a chance comment to a friend led to the olympic Bobsleigh track in Innsbruck in Austria. This story is told from two perspectives - Ruth as the disabled traveller and her friend Steve who made the trip with her. Fascinating and worrying insights into the challenges facing those in wheelchairs. This though provoking and heartwarming story shows how the human spirit can overcome the incredible odds. The book also includes the amazing story of Amar Latif the blind person that won the Disabled Entrepreneur of the Year Award and founded the travel company Traveleyes.
