À propos de la deuxième de couverture

Wendy Hilling suffers from the rare skin condition Epidermolysis Bullosa Recessive Dystrophic, known as EB, which causes her skin to tear and blister at the slightest knock. Ted, a Golden Retriever trained by Canine Partners, is the first and only known assistance dog in the UK to have supported someone with suffering with EB and he has played a huge role in giving Wendy back her confidence and independence. Wendy is now entirely reliant on Ted and he has saved her life more times than she can remember.
By turns heart-breaking and heart-warming, My Life in His Paws is about the relationship between a human and animal, about living with disability, overcoming adversity and the extraordinary things animals are capable of. This is the inspirational story of Wendy and Ted's incredible bond, but it is also the story of Wendy's astonishing life, her illness and her battles against the odds over the years, and the transformative effect Ted has had on her life.
