Deep Sea Amputee by John Lawton digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Fate is a funny thing...


"The accident would change everything, and in ways that, at nineteen, I could never even begin to imagine. Yes, my life as I knew it was over. But in another sense, a much deeper sense, my life was just beginning..."


Deep Sea Amputee is the remarkable story of John Lawton, a man who lost his leg in a car accident at the age of nineteen and initially assumed his life was over. The truth was quite the opposite. Come along with John as he discovers an entirely new world: underwater! John's job as a commercial diver provides a lifetime of fearless adventure, good times, entrepreneurship, love, humor, and, ultimately, satisfaction as he travels the globe and revels in a life well lived.
