Bouncing Forward – Now Available in Paperback or Kindle formats!

It’s just a bad cold. That’s what thirty-four-year-old
Carrie Grimes believed. Then her hands and feet went
numb. Still, doctors sent her home from the
emergency room saying it was most likely just a side
effect of the antibiotic. The next morning, she could
not stand, and the paralysis was creeping up her
limbs. Within five days, the vibrant young mom was
unable to move and relying on a ventilator to help her
breathe.
Well beyond a bad cold, Carrie had Guillain-Barré
Syndrome – a rare disease diagnosed in fewer than
6,000 people in the US each year. Bouncing Forward
is the story of how she and an extensive tribe of
family, friends, and health care professionals fought
for every inch of hope and healing.
