| Publisher Description: It was a mother's worst nightmare: The fears that her child would have an accident that would affect him for the rest of his life . . . That was exactly what happened to the Baier family from Kansas City. Son Trenton, celebrating his birthday anniversary at the Lake of the Ozarks, dived into a shallow swimming pool and became paralyzed. This is the saga of the accident, Trenton Baier's hospitalization and rehabilitation over the course of four months, and his return home to live a fairly independent life as a quadriplegic. This is also the story of family and friends who supported Trenton's journey, as told through a series of emails and regular updates while he was hospitalized and convalescing. It offers an intimate glimpse into the daily struggles and triumphs of those who suffer from spinal cord injuries, as well as the love of others and their willingness to help in any way possible. This is a practical and inspiring guide for anyone who has a family member with a spinal cord injury. |
