The publishers want to see HYPE and REQUESTS for this book. I am his Literary Agent and I am representing Brandon and his memoir! Please help us make this happen! Because Brandon isn't a TikTok Star or celebrity, this is thought of as a difficult sell.
Please show the editors that Brandon has a fan base!
Actor, athlete, and miracle--Brandon C. Gandy was born with 15 birth defects and has accumulated over 28 total surgeries throughout his life but never allowed his hardships to define who he is and how he went about pursuing his dreams. His faith and his strength brought him through the many moments his life hung by a thread.
Brandon made the news many times in his life, due to his miraculous survivals, and his unexpected achievements in sports.
Surviving Life as a Miracle Child is a true story about a boy (Brandon C. Gandy) overcoming his debilitating limitations after being born with 15 birth defects and amassing over 28 total surgeries, while miraculously living through a medically induced coma, battling cancer while immunocompromised during a global pandemic and his personal favorite, becoming the 7th person in the world to successfully have had a testicular and kidney transplant. With his body handed a raw deal to begin life, Brandon embarked on a personal quest to not let his unescapable misfortune define who he was and instead fight through the adversity he would come to face for a chance to live free of conventional chronic illness stereotypes.
From being told by his doctors at a young age he would never be able to run or jump after 5 reconstructive surgeries to fix the bi-lateral clubfeet he was born with, to being labeled by Children's hospital as one of the top 1% medically fragile kids alive in the world, the odds have always seemed to be stacked against him. His journey from overcoming childhood setbacks to juggling the teenage awkwardness of being just a little different, sheds light into the real-life struggles of what a miracle child has to go through growing up. Not only will you as a reader feel and experience the trials and tribulations from personal accounts of how Brandon turned his preconceived weaknesses into his ultimate strengths but learn why his resiliency towards life's never-ending challenges was always his secret to a meaningful life.
Nearly half of all Americans live with some type of chronic illness, according to the National Health Council and for every parent and child who has ever had to go through medically difficult times will instantly be able to resonate with the author of Surviving Life as a Miracle Child and his incredible journey to persevere. Throughout the book he shares his life stories from his struggles of trying to be a normal kid while constantly encountering a countless number of medical scares and operations along the way, to finally coming to accept the kind of barriers he was ultimately forced to overcome and the inspiration that opened his eyes to a life without fear of what his unknown future would possibly bring.
It's only after he comes full circle with the unique set of circumstances that brought him into this world, to the miracle birth of his two young children and their unpredictable certainty at a healthy life that he finally realizes maybe he's not guaranteed a tomorrow but who really is? This is why no matter whose story is being told, we're all faced with the reality that how we choose to take on the obstacles life continuously places along our unforeseen path, is what ultimately determines how our final destination will subsequently be remembered and who we have impacted most with the brief time we have been given.
