This is the story of a 17-year-old girl who is in a tragic car accident, while sitting in the back seat and what happens to the rest of her life.

Tara Stone suffers from a traumatic and severe brain injury when she is thrown from the car, going over 100 miles per hour.

In a coma for months, she finally awakes to a life of no real awareness, an inability to speak or control her own body, but a life of making all who see her feel better. She is a blessing to all who meet her.

Her parents, Ray and Carolyn Stone, are the supreme example of unconditional love for their daughter as they take care of her and see her every day at the hospitals and eventual nursing homes where she lives the rest of her life.

Tara beats the odds and lives until she is 43, 27 years longer than the doctors originally thought possible.

This story is one of grit, resilience, deep faith and forgiveness.
