Everyone's nightmare is to wake up in the hospital to find one unable to move due to a car collision. This happened to me in December 2000. During the months that followed I had physical and occupational therapy, speech and many other therapies to regain cognitive and physical abilities. I was not expected to survive the accident. I was in a coma for five weeks, experienced a brain stem twist, broke all fourteen ribs, and fractured C1-C4 vertebrae. An outcome of his brain stem twist was a traumatic brain injury. I spent a total of one and a half years in hospitals in Indiana and New Jersey A snail moves slowly, but consistently to his goal. This book presents ideas on how to get through adversity. Like the snail, progress is often very slow, but success is there if a person knows how to achieve it and finds evidence of progress. There is a meaningful connection between faith and the healing process. My faith has had a remarkable influence on recovery. Leaning on his faith has influenced my recovery. I have developed thirteen strategies to maximize success in getting through adversity. If a person implements these strategies as part of his daily effort, he will experience a new hope for living. The contents of this book will challenge the reader to improve. The book provides charts for a person to record his physical and psychological progress. A person can experience success in coming through adversity. He must record progress in order to realize it. These are ideas for thinking in a new direction. There is no 'finish line'. The most important aspect of recovery will be a person's perseverance: to have strategies and a plan for success; then, stick to it.
