Description: In July of 2005, Zack Weinstein was canoeing with a group of friends down the Saco River, in Maine. While jumping into a shallow part of the river, Zack broke his neck. At nineteen-years-old he became a C5-C6 Quadriplegic. In service to others facing life-altering injuries we teamed up with Zack to create "BACK IN LIFE". Our hope is that by sharing Zack's powerful experiences, the film may provide others with needed strength in an oftentimes daunting struggle. Feedback: "I think that the 14 minutes that I spent watching "BACK IN LIFE" are some of the best minutes that I've ever spent. I am also a quadriplegic who had a diving accident July 8, 2004, approximately a year before Zack's. You all have a true gift and talent for capturing "the real story" in your work. Thank You." -Taylor Price

SPINALpedia is a social mentoring network and video archive that allows the spinal cord injury community to motivate each other with the knowledge and triumphs gained from our individual experiences.
We envision a society where people with paralysis are no longer isolated and can return to being active members of the community. In order to realize that goal, we need to unite our community and find strength in the power of our experiences.
