Author Event – Brett Botelho

Meet Brett for a book reading and signing before he starts training at Copper Mountain for the US Winter Paralympics in Snowboarding! Standing My Own Ground is beyond doubt an inspiring, as Brett Botelho shares his story of chronic illness in a real and relatable way that inspires us all.

Brett Botelho experienced a domino effect of health problems since age 7 after hip surgery. At age 9, after being diagnosed with a neurological condition that left him paralyzed for two years, Botelho decided to piece his body back together. After multiple surgeries and wearing painful leg braces, Botelho and his doctor agreed to amputate the lower half of his left leg, freeing up a lot of immobility. Although his health problems did not stop there, this snowboarder continues to chase his dreams of sharing his story and pursuing his position on the Paralympic snowboard team. Available now at our store, Standing MY Own Ground was released October 2017, and Botelho has since shared his story nationally, speaking to groups about fighting against all odds and taking advantage of every active minute.
