My Body is Broken, But My Mind Yearns to Soar is a book about the extraordinary life of Dakota Charles Jenkins. He was born early and suffered from medical issues that left him without the ability to speak or sit up on his own. He couldn’t walk or crawl and he was in a wheel chair. Over time, thought she witnessed his true potential and that he had an intelligent mind. In the book, she shared how at 35 she went through an anonymous sperm donor and did IVF treatments to become pregnant. The donor had a very high SAT score and GRE and was studying to become a physicist and computer engineer. Dakota also had an identical twin, Maxwell. He became very sick with a bacterial blood infection and was put on life support. He was declared brain dead and passed away. Throughout the book, she covered some of the adventures Dakota and her experienced such as a make a wish trip to Disney, Dreams and Wings, just to name a few. She explained how he has a fascination with math and how since he was confined to a wheelchair he wasn’t as easily distracted like other kids are. He did lots of videos using Khan Academy and even studied algebra and calculus. He was six years old at the time. In the book, she shared how she had another son, Emile and he even showed strong capabilities. The book will walk readers through the challenges he faced and the struggles and how he changed lives while he was here.
I would recommend this remarkable book to anyone who is seeking an inspiration read. At times, the book will make you want to cry and other times you are witnessing a boy who is defying the odds and shocking people with his incredible skills. I enjoyed the personal adventures she shared that they went on including the trip to Disney and other fun activities they were able to experience as a family. Readers will be taken on a journey covering the life of Dakota.
