Home, Hope and Helen, Holzapfel Eugene, Holzapfel Helen

When Eugene and Helen Holzapfel left for a trip of a lifetime, they never imagined what life might be like living as a paraplegic and with a commitment to life-long caring. Eugene and Helen each tell their own story of the accident, the aftermath in English hospitals, the return to Australia and the long path to restore a normal life. Their accounts illustrate how courage, faith, hope and healthy doses of good humour have helped them on their journey. to overcome obstacles and anxiety.

These are compelling narratives that will bring encouragement to those who face similar burdens, and to anyone else, admiration at their gutsy resolve to not be beaten by a life-changing event.
