| Summary Note |
In this inspirational true story, hardworking mortgage broker Adam Niskar seems to have it all: a successful career, a great family and friends. But his life changes forever when, feeling invincible after a big promotion (and a bit intoxicated), Adam has a tragic diving accident and becomes a quadriplegic. Heartbroken and frustrated, Adam thinks his life is over, until a mouthy, yet comic Russian nurse comes into his life and shows him that life isn't over, it has just begun. |
