Autobiography describing and reflecting on interactions between physical limitations from severe paralysis and the gift of abundant and fulfilling life.
I was 19 and a university student when I caught polio, landing in a respirator and expected to die. As a senior citizen I have felt a continuous pressure to write my story and reflect on it because it seems to me astonishing. Despite much prayer I was never miraculously healed in the spectacular way of walking away from my wheelchair but I've experienced a fulfilment and joy in life which seem to me a chronic miracle, one that extends through time.
