Standing Tall: My Journey

Author: Spencer West

If you work hard, never give up and laugh a lot, you can achieve anything.

Spencer West is many things. An accomplished speaker. University graduate. Natural prankster. Former cheerleader. And young man without legs.

When he was five, doctors decided to amputate below his pelvis to better help him get around. Something that has never held him back.

Navigating life on his hands, Spencer has always lived with purpose. But living in a world where society seems to dictate happiness, Spencer wanted more out of life than just a paycheck and material possessions. He wanted to have an impact, but wasn’t always sure how. That was until he had the epiphany that being different was for a reason.

This is the candid, coming-of-age story of a young man’s journey of working hard, laughing a lot and always standing tall.
