It Wasn't The Horse's Fault: A Story Of Hope, Hard Work, Love & Healing

We've all heard that "life can change in an instant." It often takes longer than that instant to appreciate how much life has actually changed and learn how to live after it does.This is a story of love, hope, hard work, and healing after our life-changing instant, when Paula suffered a "severe, diffuse traumatic brain injury" after falling off of a horse at a full gallop. Her doctors said that most people would not have survived the accident. Thankfully, Paula is not "most people." She fought hard and was an inspiration to everyone who came in contact with her. By all accounts, her recovery has been nothing short of a miracle.We hope that this story about Paula's journey to SURVIVE the accident, our joint DRIVE to recover as much as possible, and our efforts to THRIVE in our "new normal" will help others who are in the middle of similar life-changing experiences. It's the book that I needed to read while sitting in the ICU Waiting Room, hoping for her to survive and then waiting for her to wake up again so we could get on with the recovery.
