A Simple Twist of Fate

‘No hands, no feet, that’s me. I lived my dream. You can too.’ – Deb Gray

A Simple Twist of Fate is the story of the Gippsland fisherman’s daughter born in 1957 with no arms and only tiny legs, who—thanks to the love, courage and support of her family, local community and her own determination and resilience—went on to live an inspiring life full of love and meaning.

As Deb’s writes in the book’s prologue:

‘I want to tell my story and I want it told with frankness and honesty… the way it has been. I want to tell of the love and devotion and of family and friends and in particular the importance of being accepted by the community during my early developing years and the choices I consciously made whilst trying to find people that did not feel they had to look after me and would utilise me as a friend. Then came the absolute joy of becoming a parent myself. So, here is my journey. The highs and lows; the sugar and the shit.
