| sheryn quadriplegic: Tragedy on the Mountain Brent Poppen, 2012-02-20 I've learned that it is not the end result that matters but the experiences that lead us to our destiny. Every time I give classroom presentations and ask the students to pretend they are me when answering this question: If I could go back to the day that I became paralyzed and change what happen, would I? Most students would guess my answer to beYes. Then when I tell then my answer is always: No I would not change anything because if I did I WOULD NOT BE HERE WITH YOU TODAY. Each time I could see in some of their eyes that they understood immediately. My sudden transition into the life of a quadriplegic and near death illness has taught me to live for today for tomorrow may not come or it may come, but not as planned. In retrospect, I realize I had a choice to make that would shape the rest of my life. I could have chosen to be angry at the world for what happened to me or not be afraid of dreaming again and working hard to make my dreams become a reality. It is evident that I chose to dream and not be afraid to fail. In so doing, my life story is best summed up as someone who: ACCOMPLISHED A LOT- BUT GAVE MORE. ENDED UP AT A HIGHER PLACE THAN THE PLACE FROM WHICH I FELL. |
| sheryn quadriplegic: Wheels for Walking Sandra Richmond, 1990-01-01 Sally and Brian are in love. But at the end of a wonderful ski weekend together, a car accident leaves Sally fully paralyzed for life. This powerful, honest book tells of Sally's struggle immediately following the accident as she goes through rehabilitation. Her anger, her flirtation with drugs, and a dangerously angry fellow patient, and her slow, hesitant journey to finding a way to live with her new reality make this one of the strongest portraits of a life-transforming disability ever published for young adults. Yet the story and the author's life offer hope. Far too many young people continue to become paraplegic and quadriplegic in car accidents, diving accidents and other risk-taking behavior. This book lays no blame and makes no promises. But it shows that a way forward can be found. |
| sheryn quadriplegic: Living the Life with a Quadriplegic Linda Feight, 2014-08-31 It was a wonderful sunny day on November 20, 1985 for Linda Feight, listening to the noise of the chain saw her husband Robin was operating while she was tending to the needs of their two young children, Jeremy and Elisha. However, life changed in an instant when an accident transformed Robin from a strong healthy young man to a quadriplegic. His dislocated neck could be helped with surgery and rehabilitation, but Robin would have to rely on the help of others for the rest of his life. Living THE Life With a Quadriplegic, the new autobiography by Linda, reflects not on the tragedy that befell this young family, but the amazing demonstrations of God's direction, power and love in this unbelievable situation. Linda becomes the sole caregiver of her beloved spouse, while also raising their two children. Yet as Linda and Robin voiced their needs to God for overcoming their challenges, they began to see God move in their lives through support from loved ones with help in their finances and home adaption's. God's continued presence and involvement in the life of Linda and Robin led to Robin's strengthened determination to find a new purpose in life, which can sometimes be lost in such a life-altering circumstance. This personal memoir is a strong depiction of faith and true reliance upon the loving provision of God to fulfill the needs of His children. Living THE Life With a Quadriplegic will stand as a testament to readers that God knows all that each of us require and will sustain us through the most difficult situations. As the years have taught me, He will not leave me or forsake me as I walk daily towards finishing the race. -Linda Feight Art work for the cover was designed by Trevor McClain. |

| sheryn quadriplegic: Husbands Should Not Break Shane Clifton, Elly Clifton, 1915 Annotation In October 2010, Shane Clifton had a serious accident that left him a quadriplegic. Husbands Should Not Break is a memoir that describes the challenges of adjusting to life with a disability. Shane is a theologian by trade, so the memoir explores the problem of pain--where is God when we suffer--weighing the sometimes-abstract categories of theology against the harsh realities of his experience. It is a brutally honest account, which does not shy away from the author's doubts and failures, and touches on rarely spoken-about topics, such as the impact of spinal cord injury upon sexuality. But while the narrative deals with sadness, it is a hopeful rather than depressing text, and often surprisingly funny, as it describes the comedic strangeness of struggling with a broken body. The memoir is an invitation into Shane's mind, providing readers with the opportunity to imagine what it might be like to experience the loss that comes with spinal cord injury and, thereafter, to think about life, loss, disability, and the possibility of happiness in the midst of the hardship and fragility of life. This no-holds barred account from one of the most brilliant theologian-surfers from Down Under, who woke up from an accident as a quadriplegic, will clear away stereotypes about disability, inspire faith from the perspective of a chair, and challenge sloppy thinking about some of the most intractable conundrums. Don't pick up this book unless you are ready to be moved, infuriated, and interrogated all at the same time.--Amos Yong, author of The Bible, Disability, and the Church: A New Vision of the People of God. How does someone cope with a life-changing injury? How does a person of faith cope? This is a frank account of one person's struggle, together with his wife and family, to deal with an accident that left him a quadriplegic. At times heartbreaking, at times hilarious, but always honest, Shane Clifton reveals the inner and outer difficulties of life as a 'quad, ' and its impact on his vocation as a Pentecostal theologian. Highly recommended. --Neil Ormerod, Professor of Theology; Editor, Australian eJournal of Theology Shane Clifton is a phenomenally gifted writer ... H]is words allow you to feel his genuinely human struggle for life and meaning. I kept reading passages aloud to my wife, sometimes through tears, and other times through laughter. Read it Shout it from the rooftops This book will change you. --Frank D. Macchia, Associate Director of the Centre for Pentecostal Studies, Bangor University, Wales (UK); Professor of Christian Theology, Vanguard University of Southern California Husbands Should Not Break is a must-read for those searching to make sense of their own experiences, for families and friends coming to terms with a new reality, and for that 'army' of rehabilitation and disability professionals and students worldwide who share, in their own way, the journey of post-injury return to everyday life. --Gwynnyth Llewellyn, Professor of Family and Disability Studies, Centre for Disability Research and Policy, University of Sydney Shane Clifton is Associate Professor of Theology at Alphacrucis College in Sydney. He is the co-author of Globalisation and the Mission of the Church (2010). |

| sheryn quadriplegic: Only the Rats Are Walking Nancy Smith, 2014-07-29 In the confusing, fear-filled moments following the car crash, Nancy Smith pushed down her rising panic to ensure her four young passengers were safe. Only when Smith turned her attention to herself did she realize something was terribly wrong. She was motionless, unable to move, her face pressed against the airbag. Her spinal cord had been severed. She was paralyzed. In Only the Rats are Walking, Smith offers an uncompromising portrayal of life as a tetraplegic, with no sensation or motor control in her torso or limbs. She recalls the initial despair in the ICU with unflinching honesty, while her depiction of people's attitudes toward the paralyzed is by turns comical and deeply frustrating. At the same time, she shares how family and friends rallied to help her adjust to her new reality. Smith's tale provides insight into life with paralysis, making her story vital reading for anyone dealing with, or helping someone deal with, a severe spinal cord injury. |
