Kofoworola Olaofe dissects herself, exposing the deep lacerations in her heart for the world to see. This moving story narrates a young woman’s contentment with life in the face of disability and her triumph over the debilitating attack of scoliosis. Excerpts: “Scoliosis is a rare disease that belittles its victim not only physically but also psychologically.” “Pain percolated my spirit like a cancerous cell and continued to wreak havoc within me until it reached the depth of my soul. ... It installed itself in my body as a ruthless adversary and an unfailing companion. This monster tormented me day and night; it exposed me to humiliation and distraction until I almost went out of my mind.” “... when a young woman says she doesn’t care a hoot about people’s opinion of her appearance, it is either because she has gone out of her mind or that she is living in cloud cuckoo land.” While a page brings smiles to your lips, the next wells up tears in your eyes. It is an intensely moving story, as humorous as it is touching. Kofoworola is a natural story teller – Kehinde A. Ayoola PhD, Kofoworola’s editor.
