Overnight, instead of the usual frenetic juggle of work, family life, and study, Carol was managing a different set of challenges — recovery, hospital appointments and rehabilitation. She was also delighted to contribute to the winter edition of Spinal Injuries Ireland’s publication, Spinal News, sharing her story.

She’s recently been selected as a resident artist in the EZ Living Interiors East Gate store, Little Island, Cork.
