My Path Through Paralysis

An honest and frank description of one man's journey from accident to paralysis and struggling with all his might in an attempt to redeem himself and become whole again. Encouraging reading for anyone struggling through disaster, and an excellent cautionary tale for anyone who feels "It couldn't happen to me."

The author spent his boyhood and young adulthood in a small southern New Jersey town along the Delaware river. He served his country as a medic in the Army from 1968 through 1970, including a tour of Vietnam. He moved to south central New York in 1973 where he finished course work for his bachelor’s degree. He has been a resident of Otsego County, NY for forty plus years and has lived on Bell Hill since 1987. In 1988 he experienced the crash that almost paralyzed him for life. Now he has documented that event and his ensuing struggle to regain what he'd lost. He is an avid gardener and grows produce the year round in his attached greenhouse. He enjoys the quiet and solitude of paddling on the local creeks, and occasionally likes to turn a phrase and have fun with words.
