Description
A car wreck leaves a 33-year-old husband & father of three paralyzed & in a coma. In the seconds that it takes two cars to collide, 5 lives are forever changed. This is a true account of how a woman faces the near-loss of her husband, deals with the permanent loss of the father-figure in her young children's lives & struggles against the odds of holding her family together. At the same time she is thrust into the unfamiliar legal & medical world & faces decisions & problems which awakens a strength she never knew she had. When her husband does not have a full recovery & the familiar husband & wife roles become reversed, she looks to the doctors & others in the health profession for guidance with the thought that they were the ones with the answers, but the only word from them was "divorce." There were no books dealing with the issues of how to keep a family together in such a tragedy so with steely determination & faith, this is the story of how one family endured.
