TRUE GRIT ON WHEELS

The Courage and Perseverance of Albert Bettencourt

Albert Bettencourt was born with a desire to be heroic and to have all of his dreams come true. But the odds were stacked against him because he was also born with cerebral palsy, became blind in his thirties, and has a slightly diminished intellect. Albert never lost hope and keeps his head high and his spirit intact, rolling through life on his iron chariot with true grit and determination. With help from his loving parents, family and friends, Albert has survived and thrived for over fifty years. This book is his dream come true. He hopes more than anything that his story will inspire others to love each other and to live their lives big, regardless of their circumstances.
