With acerbic wit and a hilarious voice, Shane Burcaw's Laughing at My
Nightmare describes the challenges he faces as a twenty-one-year-old
with spinal muscular atrophy. From awkward handshakes to having a
girlfriend and everything in between, Shane handles his situation with
humor and a you-only-live-once perspective on life. While he does talk
about everyday issues that are relatable to teens, he also offers an
eye-opening perspective on what it is like to have a life threatening
disease.
