Just Keep Swimming: a crash, a quest, and waves of hope tells the true story of a mom's crisis, a daughter's paralysis, and incredible travels that carry them from a small town in Ohio to Harvard, Capitol Hill, and around the world.
After a car accident, a heartsick mom battles depression and guilt while a shy but determined teenager fights the harsh physical challenges of quadriplegia. Fourteen-year-old Beth believes everything will be okay. Cindy feels sure that nothing will ever be okay again.
Together they embark on an extraordinary journey of change and reinvention to create a new normal. Cindy and Beth find joy in unlikely adventures-riding the wave to the end of an era that leaves them transformed. As Beth knew the night of the accident, everything really is okay.
Hope is an incredibly powerful thing. And if you never give up? Hope wins.
