Sheila Hocken

A delightful and courageous autobiography ... will move you to tears

I confess to having a large lump in my throat as I read Sheila Hocken's story. Touching and joyful

One of the most poignant works I have ever read. It is a beautiful book

As a girl, Sheila never let her gradual descent into blindness prevent her from trying to do everything a sighted person could do. Then at 17, unable to see to find her way around the house she grew up in, she found herself dreading her future in an 'ever darkening vacuum'. 
 
But then the remarkable Emma enters her life, and Sheila begins a journey that brings her the independence, love and happiness she never dreamed possible. 
 
Emma and I is the moving and inspirational story of the unique bond between Sheila and her dog, and shows that, sometimes, miracles do happen.
