Description
When my son Sean was born with special needs, his mother and I were told he would never be “normal” and we mourned for the life we had imagined for him. We thought we would have to be his teacher and protector, more so than the typical child. However, we quickly learned that lessons can come from the most unlikely places and that our world would be changed for the better in ways we could have never envisioned. . . all because of Sean.
Before he died on Father’s Day 2019, Sean taught me valuable life lessons that only became more pronounced upon his passing. He taught me how to build strong, authentic relationships. He taught me how to live in the moment. He taught me how to feel gratitude. Mostly, he taught me how to live like Sean, and these lessons are his legacy.
Advance Praise
“Live Like Sean is a wonderful book that, like Sean himself, will stay in your heart long after you turn the final page.”
—Harlan Coben, New York Times best-selling author of The Boy from the Woods
“A book for anyone who has ever been fiercely inspired by a child—which should be everyone."
—Mitch Albom, New York Times best-selling author of Finding Chika
"Through the 2014 Special Olympics USA Games, I had the great fortune to get to know Sean and his amazing family. With both a Montville and Hoboken connection, we immediately forged a friendship. Sean taught me about strength, resiliency, and mostly, patience. Live Like Sean provides a brief look into a life that touched so many and is a must-read about how life lessons can come from the most unexpected sources. Sean was a shining presence who impacted all who knew him, and he will be missed."
—Buddy “The Cake Boss” Valastro, New York Times best -selling author and CEO, Carlos’ Bakery
“Live Like Sean is truly an inspiring read. As a father and as a corporate leader in his industry, TJ stopped time throughout Sean’s life to respect and admire his person. Yet it was only after Sean’s passing that TJ realized the extraordinary reach of Sean’s understanding of life and the lessons he taught so many friends and family members. This book is more than a “feel good’” book. In this book, TJ Nelligan captured a purpose behind Sean’s life that will impact your day and no doubt change your perspective on life. We all should learn to live like Sean." —Marc Edenzon, former Regional President and Managing Director, Special Olympics North America
