Autorenporträt
Suzan and John Jennings experienced and dealt with a sudden onset of Guillain-Barré syndrome in 2008. Within six days, Suzan went from a tingle in her face to total paralysis from the neck down. She became an expert on the disease, its challenges, and how to work toward recovery. Suzan and John have been married for 13 years, retired from successful careers and now live in Victoria, Vancouver Island, Canada and enjoy life with their SPCA Rescue dog Lady. Suzan continues to be an Advocacy Champion and dreams of a world that is barrier free for all. John (Mr. ChooChooTrain) is enjoying life in the slow-track, for now.
