When the Hull family was blessed with the gift of a new baby on the way, the family was ecstatic. What could make the lovely, young married couple any happier than the new addition of a baby? The Hulls' elation turned to concern when they discovered their baby would have a neurological defect called Spina Bifida, and this defect would result in a life-long disability. The couple bravely accepted the challenge and kept their attitudes positive, despite some of the less than encouraging comments they heard. Their little girl was born beautiful and strong; she would retain this strength of sweet spirit and it would later serve her magnificently. The Hulls never looked back. Katie has had her good days and her not-so-good days, but throughout her challenges, she has kept that strength going strong. Katie wrote her first book, Katie CAN do...and you CAN too , to share her courage with others in the hope that she might inspire children and adults, with and without disabilities, to move ahead with their goals and dreams no matter what-because Katie can and so can you. Katie's unique perspective as a child living and thriving under a set of physical challenges lends tremendous credence and inspiration to her call to act. Whether or not you have a physical, mental, or internal challenge to overcome, you can read Katie's words, learn from her, and gain a boost to your spirit. There is nothing that holds you back, except yourself. Katie generously shares what she has experienced and learned from surgeries, as well as about learning how to use a walker, crutches, and other adaptive equipment.
