Have you ever wondered how you would cope with unimaginable pain and trauma? How about one that's been haunting your everyday life for a whopping forty-nine years? That's exactly the story Laquita Parks shares with us today. Her book, "Walking Limitations by Other People's Definition" is an exposition of her life, marked by a tragic incidence of childhood trauma inflicted by a nurse at Grady Hospital.
Laquita's tale starts at age four when a seemingly simple surgery turned dark. A single injection struck a nerve, leading to intense pain, swelling and a life-long physical disability. Listen as she recounts the excruciating ordeal, her consequent struggle with walking and the adversity she had to overcome to regain her ability. Her journey was strewn with moments of doubt, pain and countless physical challenges. But it's in the face of these adversities that Laquita's resilience and determination truly shine.
Laquita's life is a true testament to the power of faith and perseverance. She shares how faith in God and the strength derived from her memories have been her rock during the hardest times. Tune in to hear how she has faced her trauma head-on, chosen to live life boldly, and inspired many along the way. The villains in her story aren't just the ones who inflicted the pain, but also society's limited understanding of her physical disability. This episode is more than a recount of a traumatic event; it's an inspirational and enlightening conversation that serves as a reminder that we are more than what happens to us. Laquita's story is a beacon of hope and courage in a world of adversity.
