“From There to Here: Stories of Adjustment to Spinal Cord Injury,” is made up of forty-five personal essays by people with spinal cord injuries. It is designed to bring hope, but not by inspiration, as it illustrates the real and complex process of how people respond to sudden and overwhelming change. The heart of these stories is what happened in between–the actually journey to adjustment, acceptance, meaning and possibility–the journey to “Here.”
