Eddie Hunt is an outstanding example of human spirit & courage. A small town boy with a life rich in family, friends & hope for the future. Albeit gut wrenching at times, I could not put this book down! I can honestly say my life has become richer because of it. Eddie's candid & remarkable story will continue to touch my life and the lives of my family as my young son shares similar disabilities. I am proud to have grown up with the author in our native Stockton, California as he has always been a glorious example of community, American courage, determination, vitality, and fervent strength. I want to thank him for continuing to be this shining example & for sharing his "Slide Through Time".~
