Synopsis

In The Last Adventure, the third in a series, Marcel LaPerriere continues to address the multitude of mental and physical issues that affect someone living with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). And because LaPerriere lives in a small Alaskan town, he also faces some unique medical challenges. In The Last Adventure, he tells how he has tried to deal with these challenges without negatively affecting people around him. Many of the stories relate how his life experiences formed his philosophy of life and have helped him deal with the many ways that ALS makes life difficult; stories he hopes to be sources of inspiration to anyone dealing with any medical problem.

In the Construction Tips section of the book, LaPerriere shares potential workable handicap modifications based on his personal experiences living with a disability and his many years in the construction industry.

A delightful coda to the book is a section of bird drawings by his wife, Connie LaPerriere.

 

All proceeds from the book sales are donated to various ALS nonprofits.
