Non-Fiction Memoir | Self-Help
Patrick Henry Hughes was born with a rare genetic disorder
that left him without eyes and physically disabled. But he
was also blessed with exceptional musical talent—able to
play the piano as a toddler and now, at age 19, a nationally
known pianist, singer, and trumpeter who has performed at
the Grand Ole Opry and the Kennedy Center. Currently he’s a
member of his college marching band, playing while his
devoted father pushes him in his wheelchair. With determined
optimism and courage, Hughes has made “I am potential” his
mantra and defied the impossible at every turn. Now, for
the first time, Hughes and his father share the full account
of his extraordinary journey. In I Am Potential,
Hughes recounts the eight critical lessons he has learned
that are at the heart of his success, including “When Life
Gives You Lemons, Accept Them and Be Grateful” and “Do All
You Can to Change What You Can.” Uplifting and revealing,
I Am Potential is remarkably inspirational for anyone
facing challenges in their own life.

Patrick is courage. He has been the hope for years for the families of disabled children that he helps our area raise money for each year. This book will make a good. I would keep some tissues handy. His selfless acts and loving heart will keep a warm hold over you. (Terri Jordan 3:26pm October 28, 2008)
