Books
Brave Lotus Flower Rides the Dragon
If you love reading, why not check out Tracy Todd’s book Brave Lotus Flower Rides the Dragon about her journey of living life as a high level quadriplegic.
Here’s what one reviewer had to say: “For me the most incredibly brave part of this journey, is how open you are with your story and life journey. It was mesmerizing getting a glimpse into the private life of a quadriplegic both on the logistical side but more over the emotional one.”

Cliphangers
“As a quadriplegic, sometimes I have trouble holding small items,” says Paul. But Cliphangers can help! Cliphangers are small adhesive circles with a plastic hoop that leaves a space to hook your fingers in. Paul attaches it to the back of his cell phone and Kindle, and it makes it easier for him to hold and work with those objects.
