520 "When Victoria Arlen was eleven-years-old, she contracted
two rare diseases simultaneously and fell into a
mysterious vegetative state. For two years her mind was
dark, but in the third year, her mind broke free, and she
was able to think clearly and to hear and feel everything
- but no one knew. When she was fifteen-years-old, against
all odds and medical predictions, she was finally able to
communicate through eye blinks, and she gradually regained
her ability to speak and eat and move her upper body, but
she faced the devastating reality of paralysis from the
waist down because of damage to her spine. However,
Victoria didn't lose her strength or steadfast
determination, and two years later, she won a gold medal
for swimming at the London 2012 Paralympics. In Locked In,
Victoria shares her never-before-published story--the pain,
the struggle, the fight to live and thrive, and most
importantly, the faith that carried her through. Her
journey was not easy, but by believing in God's healing
power and forgiveness, she is living proof that, despite
seemingly insurmountable odds and challenges, the will to
survive and resolve to live can be a force stronger than
our worst deterrents"--|cProvided by publisher.
