Today at Book & Brunch, we’re honored to spotlight one of the most powerful memoirs of resilience we’ve read this season. Two Mountains: Kilimanjaro to Quadriplegic and Back by S. Michael Scadron.

Image
  Michael, an avid runner and trekker, reached the summit of Kilimanjaro at 52. Weeks later, a rare neurological disorder left him quadriplegic, unable to feed, move, or care for himself. What follows is a raw, honest, inspiring fight to reclaim his life, a second ascent that required even more courage than the first mountain. This memoir blends humor, heartbreak, determination, and deep humanity. It asks us to reflect on what   real  strength looks like, and how we rebuild when everything familiar disappears. At Book & Brunch, we celebrate stories that elevate, enlighten, and empower. Michael’s story is all three. ✨ Join today’s discussion and share your thoughts. Which “mountain” in your own life are you climbing right.
