Description
"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."-- Provided by publisher.
