Beyond the Wheelchair is a compelling autobiography of Esther Maguta, a Kenyan woman who survived a traumatic spinal cord injury after a car accident in 2000. The book chronicles her inspiring journey from that life-altering incident to becoming an advocate, caregiver, and beacon of hope for others with disabilities.

Beyond the Wheelchair is more than a story of surviving an accident—it’s a powerful testimony of resilience, spiritual faith, inner strength, and the will to reclaim agency over one’s life. Esther Maguta’s voice is raw, reflective, and unfiltered, making this an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the lived experience of disability, especially in the African context.
