New Release: Touched ~ The Marin Morrison Story Celebrates the Swimmer Who Inspired the World
Touched: The Marin Morrison Story by Matt Morrison
From splashing around as a true waterbaby to a promising teenage swimmer with very real Olympic prospects, Marin would not be deterred in the face of a devestating diagnosis. Her plan to swim at The Water Cube in Beijing, 2008, was not a wish - and more than hope, it was Marin’s quest; it was her destiny.
Touched captures this extraordinary balance of talent, resilience, and heart. Through a medical drama to the pinnacle of athletic endurance, Marin’s story redefines what it means to be a champion. Along the way, the collective soul of a support system is illuminated in how so many followers shared in the sweetness and sadness of Marin’s journey.
Mr. Morrison offers readers not only the intimate portrait of a young girl - a special soul, his daughter - with her legacy of incredible athletic achievement, but also a timeless reminder that true triumph lies in perseverance, community and love.
