I am so jazzed. She is just so inspiring. I had the pleasure of hearing her and Mark Kelly speak a couple of years ago in Youngstown.
Her book was one of the few books that have ever brought me to tears.

(2,344 posts)1. I experienced a serious head injury and neck injury on
the same day she was shot. Obviously there is no comparison in level of injury. Only to say her incredible courage and strength gave me so much hope as I maneuvered my injury and rehabilitation. I marvel at her strength.
I hope youre doing OK
Yes I too marvel at her strength and spirit.
