See You Now: A Memoir of Shane's Triumph over SMA

Lisa Oltmans

4.9/5 (25757 ratings)

Description:This book is a true story of obstacles, triumphs, and miracles. If the most catastrophic disorder happened to you, how would you live in spite of it? You always have the choice to either give up or fight. This is the story of the fight to live in spite of insurmountable odds. Maybe giving up was the obvious choice, but this family never picked the easy way. Michael Shane Oltmans received a death diagnosis at the tender age of 8 weeks old. According to all the medical literature, babies with Type 1 spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) or Werdnig Hoffman syndrome, never survived the age of 2 years old. The heinous disorder robs the body of the ability to move, breathe, and eat by weakening all the voluntary muscle systems. Shane’s parents, encouraged by their infant’s fighting spirit, dedicated their lives to help him fight. As Shane grew up, his personal goal was to live through his pediatric illness and become an adult. This is his SMA survival story. Using his own sheer willpower, faith in God, and faith in his parent’s, Shane triumphantly overcame SMA. With the help of home health nurses, doctors, and therapists, Shane’s parents gained the skills needed to perform life-saving medical procedures. Juggling employer health care plans, they kept Shane on private insurance until he transitioned into SSI and adulthood. All proceeds from this book will be donated to the Spinal Muscular Atrophy community of affected infants, children, and adults.
