Laughing at My Nightmare by Shane Burcaw
With acerbic wit and a hilarious voice, Shane Burcaw's Laughing at My Nightmare describes the challenges he faces as a twenty-one-year-old with spinal muscular atrophy. From awkward handshakes to having a girlfriend and everything in between, Shane handles his situation with humor and a "you-only-live-once" perspective on life. While he does talk about everyday issues that are relatable to teens, he also offers an eye-opening perspective on what it is like to have a life threatening disease.
Shane Burcaw is a man with Spinal Muscular Atrophy who also seems to have a wicked sense of humour. He writes about his experiences on his blog and is the founder of a foundation committed to giving adaptive technology to persons with muscular dystrophy. He is the author of the picture book Not So Different and the novel Laughing at My Nightmare. He and his girlfriend live in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
