Splendid

Splendid,/i> celebrates the brief life of Wole Adenubi, a special and unique human being, as told by his mother, author Mobolaji Adenubi. Witty, charming, intelligent, vivacious, and brave, Wole suffered from several serious health issues. An epileptic, paraplegic, and hydrocephalic, Wole received various treatment regimes from experts in Great Britain, the United States, and in his home country of Nigeria. With fierce and uncommon determination, Wole defied his physical limits to live a normal life to the fullest extent, attending a public school and excelling academically. Though not a gregarious person, Wole made friends easily and continued to triumph against the odds despite his health problems. Splendid is a story of overwhelming love-the love Wole gave to and received from his devoted family. His enthusiasm, optimism, and fortitude encouraged family, friends, medical and educational professionals, and strangers alike to help him in every way possible. Wole's indomitable spirit and immense courage lives on, continuing to inspire us all.
