This is the story of a child who unknowingly participated in a very important chapter of Canadian history, a painful chapter that taught Michael and hundreds of thousands of others like him in North America how it was indeed possible to survive and thrive after a potentially deadly disease left them disabled.

From the onset of polio until the age of 13 Michael experienced many elective surgeries to correct a deformed limb. The surgeries enabled him to live with moderate disability up until the age of 35.

Thirty-three years following the onset of poliomyelitis, postpolio syndrome has taken Michael back into the confines of disability while at the same time leading him onto a path of compelling and varied life experiences.
