by Robin Thomas (Author)
I was born and raised in St. Augustine, FL where I lived with my parents and seven older sisters. At the age of 24, I was involved in a terrible car accident with my friend George. In the near fatal accident we both sustained life threatening injuries. I sustained a spinal cord injury. I was paralyzed from my neck down. My parents were strongly advised to place me into a nursing home because I would need to use life support machines for the rest of my life. Fortunately, my parents brought me home and nursed me back to good health. After 5 years of prayer, sweat and tears, I was able to stand up and walk again. My story was written to encourage as well as inspire anyone who faces adversity to never give up. This book details actual events that occurred from the scene of the accident, the trauma unit and rehabilitation.
