In this podcast, I am joined by Susan Mockler to discuss her harrowing experience of traumatic spinal cord injury, which she narrated in ‘Fractured’. This is her memoir that detailed her experiences with acquired disability following a car accident which left her with a spinal cord injury.
She recalls how she sustained a cervical spinal injury as the front seat passenger of a car that hit a moose, and the devastating near-total paralysis that followed. She also explored her emotional response to the injury, and the mental attitude she adopted to help her through a reasonably successful, and on-going rehabilitation.
Susan Mockler is a writer and retired clinical psychologist living in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Her essays and stories have a appeared in a range of American and Canadian publications.
