Many Thanks
Carol’s story truly touched my heart and really got me to thinking about how spinal cord injury could happen to anyone. In an instant, life is changed and no amount of regret can ever turn the clock back. While researching spinal cord injury, I read many blogs, forums, and books.
I also have a former coworker who is a C5 quadriplegic who we all greatly respected. We soon learned that he would do everything he could for himself, and we’d only help him if he asked us specifically to either open a door, or pick something up from the floor. He was a computer whiz and using two pencils strapped to his hands with Velcro, he wrote code and email and ran design meetings. His level of injury is the same as Jason Boyd, my former firefighter character, and someday, I hope to write Jason’s story and figure out what happened to Carolyn, his fiancée.
I’m grateful to my team of beta readers and members of my reader’s club who helped me through the writing and revising of this story. They gave me good feedback and some shared their experiences with me.
Many thanks to: Amber McCallister, Audrey Griffis, Corissa Palfrey, Dianne Kenes, Gina Smith, Kris Woltzen, Marie Devine, Mari Flores Baca, Sherelle Ellis, Terri Merkel, Chantel Rhondeau, Jessica Cassidy, Rebecca Austin, Yomari Suárez-Rivera.
Much appreciation goes to my awesome proofreader, Kimberly Dawn for her diligent proofing and looking things up.
Finally, I thank all the readers who spent time with me through my stories. It makes my writing truly rewarding.
