She was 23 when the accident happened.
One moment, she was driving home from work, singing along to the radio.
The next, she was waking up in a hospital bed—unable to move her legs.
Spinal cord injury.
Paralysis from the waist down.
Doctors said, “You’ll have to learn a new way to live.”
She cried for weeks.
Not because she couldn’t walk—
But because she thought her life, her dreams, her identity… were gone.
But something changed when a nurse said gently:
“You’re still here. That means something.”
That night, she made a promise to herself:
“If I’m still breathing, I’m still becoming.”
So she started small.
🛏 Sat up on her own.
🦽 Learned to use a wheelchair.
💻 Took online courses during rehab.
🎤 Started speaking about her journey.
People told her she was strong.
She didn’t feel strong.
She just didn’t quit.
5 years later, she runs a non-profit for spinal injury survivors.
She’s spoken on global stages.
She teaches others how to rebuild their lives, brick by brick.
Because she knows:
👉 Survival isn’t just about staying alive.
It’s about choosing to live when everything says you can’t.
She’s not a victim.
She’s not just a fighter.
She’s a survivor. 💪
