Description
Should we blindly accepting the hand fate has dealt us, or turn our misfortune into triumph? This was exactly the choice that Chris Graham was faced with when, aged 38 he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease; a disease he realised had killed his father in his forties and was the reason his brother Tony was in a nursing home aged forty-three. Chris was a long-serving British commando, who had just found love with girlfriend Vicki and discovered they were expecting a baby. The news turned their world upside down. After dismissal from the army due to his health, Chris he and Vicky then found out any childof Chris's had a 50 per cent chance of inheriting the rare gene that caused his dementia. However, Vicki was determined to keep their baby and remain by Chris's side, insisting that she'd rather have 'five minutes of amazing' together than a lifetime without him. After his son Dexter's birth, Chris embarked on a 16,000-mile solo endurance cycle around North America raising money and awareness for Alzheimer's Research. He was armed only with his bike, a sense of humour and some British grit and was racing against time, dementia, and the future that could also be awaiting his children. Five Minutes of Amazing is both the story of Chris's epic journey and of the struggle he and Vicky face every day. Inspiring and heart-warming in equal measure, it's as important as it is moving, and their story will touch everyone who reads it.
