"Walking This Walk And Beyond"

On April 26, 2002, my life changed. On my way home from work, I was struck head-on by a drunk driver and paralyzed from the waist down. Everything changed in that moment. I wrote about my life before and after the crash in my first book, published in 2007. So much has happened since. My goal is to help us all to see there is value in suffering. It is one of the main ingredients that will enable us to be better people. I talk about myself, as well as others, who found strength in hard times. My hope is that when you read, you enter into the experience, reflect, and find hope. There is a purpose for the pain you are going through.
