The Journey of a Dreamer: Growing Hope

Dawn was in a life changing car accident at age 16. She survived against all odds. Dawn was in a trauma unit for 6 months, followed by 4 months in a hospital to relearn how to eat, talk, and walk. She was then in a rehabilitation hospital 2 1/2 years. Through all of this she remains hopeful. Hope gives her the courage to tackle anything life throws her way.
