Bethany Hamilton (Soul Surfer).

I watched Soul Surfer on DVD tonight. It is based on the true story of Bethany Hamilton.

I’m very inspired by Bethany.

I had read her book when it was first released.

I had written a letter to her on myspace (which was popular at the time). One of her relatives replied who had operated her myspace page. They sent me an autographed copy for a door-prize for the West Virginia Therapeutic Recreation Association (WVTRA) conference.

I must admit that I had a difficult time giving up that book. I wanted to keep it for myself.

I can’t remember who had won that copy of her book.

Here are links for her books and DVDs:



Here is a video where she tells her story:



Here is the youtube video trailer for the movie:
