My husband Gabriel had already been hospitalized for two weeks after a serious crash on the Interstate 275 bridge. His initial scans suggested only a relatively minor back injury, yet Gabriel insisted he had completely lost the use of his legs. He also claimed his right arm had become so weak that he couldn’t even lift a cup of water….…

My granddaughter, Sophie, stood in the doorway, the oversized yellow wool of the sweater swallowing her small frame.
