Trevor Smith Schaefer was the boy who had everything. Then the
piercing headaches came and up-ended his world. A brain cancer
diagnosis just after his thirteenth birthday marked the start of a
journey of recovery and personal growth. With his mother, Trevor
became an advocate for children with cancer and a champion for the
protection of small communities from environmental contamination
leading to disease clusters.
This true story is a must-read for anyone who has faced seemingly
insurmountable personal challenges in a world that has stopped
listening. Through Trevor's own trek to recovery and triumph, we
learn that embracing one's physical and emotional pain, and facing
up to one's mistakes, can often be the first step toward progress.
"The Boy on the Lake" is an easy-to-read reference on how America's
small towns, and the children who live in them, are slipping
through the cracks of environmental overreach and falling victim to
a broken system, one that has come under review in Washington and
has led to the creation of United States Senate Bill S.76, Trevor's
Law.
