I BOUGHT A BUS - A Memoir by Belinda Adams
I Bought a Bus is a story of a mother’s love and grit, of determination and transformation.
Twelve years ago, Belinda Adams’ son, Dylan, was in a horrific car accident in Brisbane. Overnight, Belinda became his carer. She had to help him learn to walk and talk again and at the same time find enough money to support herself and her family.
Against all odds, she did it. And along the way, she bought an old bus and began driving from town to town to tell as many people as possible about the invisible disability of brain injuries, the long hard road to rehabilitation and how all of us need to change our perspectives and offer a helping hand.
“Compulsively readable, funny and totally inspiring. Belinda Adams’ memoir will make you laugh and cry. At the same time, it will make you marvel at the lengths to which a mother will go to save her child and protect her family.”
Suellen Dainty, author of The Housekeeper and After Everything
