NORWICH, Conn. - Aug. 13, 2013 - PRLog -- Connecticut Women Shares Her Story Of A Split Second Accident That Forever Changed Her Family’s Life

Author, Sandra Hocking is pleased to announce the promotion of her book, Split Second: Life Change.

Sandra and Ray Hocking have worked hard their whole lives; in their sixties, they were simply looking forward to retirement. In an instant, however, their lives changed forever when Ray suffered a freak accident that caused him to be paralyzed. He needed around-the-clock care and couldn't even live in his own home. Ray struggled to make progress at a rehabilitation facility before moving to a convalescent home, which became his permanent home. Although he had lost the ability to move like he once did, he continued to inspire everyone he met. A constant advocate for her husband, Sandra did everything she could to help him recover a life worth living. She liquidated assets and researched grants. She determined what assistance her husband qualified for and what he didn't-and through it all, Ray kept a positive attitude. Sandra spent some time being angry, but she sees every day with her husband and their family is a gift. She has already found out that it can all change in a Split Second.

Sandra says, “In an instant our lives changed when my husband suffered a freak accident that caused him to be paralyzed. Needing around the clock care he cannot live at home so will be confined to a nursing home for the rest of his life. I am with him as much as possible and have a bed in his room so I can sleep there every night.”

Split Second: Life Change is available in both print and ebook format.
