A gifted athlete.An unthinkable accident.Will a wheelchair crush her adventurous spirit?
Jenny Smith was a typical teenager—a gymnast and athlete who loved hair and makeup, played in a band, and was active in her church youth group. Then one summer morning, a spinal cord injury left her paralyzed from the chest down, dependent on others for her most basic needs.
In this deeply personal memoir, Jenny doesn’t shy away from the physical, emotional, and relational challenges that come with disability. Filled with revelations and sharply observant wit, her uplifting account of resilience serves as an inspirational reminder to us all that adversity can lead to unexpected personal growth.
With honesty and humor, faith and fortitude, she demonstrates how we can all live the impossible, even when life doesn’t go as planned.
