Trinity House Press Wholeness Is Possible by John Wesley Adams
This is an inspiring, therapeutic book written from a unique perspective for paralytics & people with disabilities, doctors, nurses, physical therapists, caregivers, family and friends. The author, Dr. Wes Adams, Ph.D., is himself a quadriplegic from a car accident at the age of 16. He has written Wholeness is Possible from almost 58 years of experience in a wheelchair. This book provides practical wisdom and hope for recovering a full, purposeful and meaningful life!As a practical handbook, it contains much important information for both paralytics and health care professionals who work with spinal cord injured individuals. The book addresses the building blocks and the recovery stages necessary for a paralytic to make the journey toward wholeness.In order to advance beyond physical rehabilitation recovery, other "recovery spheres" must also be given attention after trauma. This book focuses on all dimensions of personhood affected by paralysis. Physical-mental-emotional-spiritual dimensions of life, along with social issues, are all essential aspects of restoration and healing in a whole-person recovery. While this book's objective seeks to maximize physical recovery, it does so within a paradigm of wholeness.
