We Are All Paralyzed

After surviving a childhood brain injury, Brandon Sulser breaks his neck in a diving accident at eighteen—just months before his planned mission—leaving him a quadriplegic. In this candid memoir he recounts three more near-death experiences, years of depression and physical struggle, and the faith that carried him through. From learning to drive again to earning a master's degree and counseling other trauma patients, Brandon shows how choosing to become 'better, not bitter' turns a life of relentless hardship into one of purpose, hope, and quiet triumph.

• A man who survived four near-death experiences—brain injury, broken neck, freezing to death, and a highway crash—and calls himself 'called to live, not chosen to survive.'
• An unflinchingly honest memoir that refuses the tidy happy ending: no miracle cure, just real faith in the waiting.
• 'We are all paralyzed'—the powerful reframe that turns one man's wheelchair into everyone's spiritual mirror.
• Miracles told plainly: a plugged artery, a search-and-rescue prayer that restarts a heart, a king salmon on the last cast.

“Maybe the beginning of our heartache is also the beginning of His.”

Perfect for an adult facing a chronic illness, disability, or overwhelming trial who wants an honest, faith-centered story that doesn't promise a fairy-tale fix.
