Each wounded service member has his or her own story. The stories
include what they have done in their civilian and military lives before
their life changing injury, and then each confronts and conquers unique
challenges. In my experience, most confront degrees of the following:
realizing their preferred military service is over; adapting to the
change that occurred to their bodies no matter what the injury;
realizing life is not over, but you must now do things differently. And
the most dramatic - realizing you don't know what you want to do, and
to be willing to accept the guidance and professional opinions of
others to help you succeed in your changed world. All of this happened
to me.
