Dear Readers,
This next story came to my
attention because it was featured on Home and Family. Unlike most stories, I am
usually aware of the person being interviewed and their disability related
experience; this time I was not. It highlighted Lauren Scruggs (now Lauren
Scruggs - Kennedy) and the four-year anniversary of the propeller accident that
changed her life forever. Although she recovered after lots of rehab, the
accident left her with both physical and emotional scores- including the loss
of her left arm and eye. These days Lauren is looking forward to the future and
her new marriage; she is also using her experience to create awareness for those
who are financially unable to provide real life like prosthetics for their loved
ones.
