I thought life was pretty much over. Paul Herman

I was afraid people wouldn't see me for who I still was. Cathy Green

I didn't need this to be a better person. Susan Douglas

I wasn't sure I wanted to live 'this way.' Kevin Wolitzky

The above four people and 49 more just like them went on to find high levels of success and lead satisfying lives. Together they tell 53 stories of moving forward to meet all the challenges, fears, obstacles, and problems common to the life-altering circumstances after spinal cord injury, and doing it without benefit of wealth, large settlements or solid health coverage.
