Wynnikka Matthews, at the age of 22, has written a memoir to raise awareness for her physical disability, Obstetrical Brachial Plexus Injury. In her book, she opens up about living with her OBPI and her experiences with challenges such as adaptation, accommodation, attending school, bullying, anxiety & depression, self-harm, dating, mourning the sudden death of a loved one, coping strategies and overcoming many of her barriers, her hopes for her future and much more!
Wynnikka is honoured to motivate and inspire others with her story of fortitude. She hopes her book will be a tool to raise awareness of OBPI and be a bridge for her to connect with others around the world who are living with Brachial Plexus Injuries.
