A book worth writing!

Amazing FREE EBOOK offer still on!!!! Just 5 days left!!

I never thought I'd even write a book let alone an autobiography. Who ever heard of an autobiography coming from a twenty something? I know some very public figures may have at that age, but I'm just a hidden recluse of very small standing!

It is quite astounding that it only took ten months to write over ninety two thousand words! Quite a daunting task for a complete writing novice. I scraped though with the odd grammatical faux pas but overwhelmingly the response has been positive. It's been spread around a bit too, with stories of my book being passed around colleagues, families and being read multiple times. So for awareness alone that really makes it a book worth writing.

Foreword

I’m Ian Griffiths from South Wales. This book is a story of my life so far up to the age of twenty five years. I live with and suffer from the ill effects of DMD which stands for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. It is a severe muscle wasting disease and a life limiting terminal illness. It won’t kill you in six months in the traditional sense of ‘terminal’, but it’s far crueller than that, it steals every muscle in your body first and then kills you, anywhere up to the age of thirty. There have been cases of men living past that into their forties and fifties but only with drastic interventions such as ventilators and tracheotomies, more on this can be found by reading on.
I hope to cover a few things in this book, from a history of my childhood years to a more detailed history from sixteen years onwards and finally onto my current problems and triumphs. At times things I write may make you smile or may make you pause and think about the seriousness of life with this devastating disease. I really hope there will be a cure but currently for us supposedly ‘older’ guys with DMD (over twenty one), there seems very little hope. If I don’t see a cure in my lifetime, I hope my campaigning helps in some way bring it about for future generations, so another child won’t have to see their body wither and die before their time.
