SCALING WALLS: a publishing effort by OH SIEW MAY

On the 26th Mar, West Spring had a special visitor who had gone all out of her way to publish her own book, "Scaling Walls". In the book, she chronicles her struggles in growing up as someone who has cerebral palsy and the numerous setbacks she had overcome with sheer grit and determination. Her plight was first covered in the Straits Times. (You can read the article on the following link: ( http://www.asiaone.com/News/Education/Story/A1Story20090227-125020.html) Her "never say die" spirit and attitude led us to invite her to share her experiences in the hope that her steely determination would motivate the rest of us all. GO SIEW MAY! GO ELECTROLITS!!
