What Other People Are Saying:
From Angie Gretchel:
From Diane:
Thank you, Cynthia, for your fantastic book! I just finished it, within 3 hours, and it is really great. You had me tearing up, especially during the graduation part. You are a wonderful, strong woman. Thanks to you- I do believe in happy endings!
I owe Cynthia a huge thank you for her honesty and incredible ability to
relate her amazing journey and rehabilitation. I didn't want to put the
book down once I started it. She is such a tremendous writer that she
certainly drew me in....I couldn't wait to see what happened next! I
celebrated with her during each advancing stage in her recovery and the
positive note once the trial was behind her. And I celebrate with her now.
Cynthia is an incredible woman, with strength and courage few people know. From Patrick C. Perfetto:
I appreciate so much what she has been through because of her book. I want
to thank her for allowing me this glimpse of a miracle!
From Greg Kritz, pastor at Lighthouse Community Church, Fort Lauderdale, FL
I very much enjoyed your book. I'm so grateful to learn the extent of your recovery since the accident and even more grateful that God has redeemed it all for His glory. I'm certain the best is yet to come.
Ms. Doroghazi's book is outstanding. When she tells her story in person, one gets the sense that here is a strong and savvy individual who survived a difficult experience. However, to read her story in its entirety, as presented in this book, conveys how truly extraordinary her life has been. Written from the hand of the person who lived to tell it, this story is deeply personal - it draws the reader into her world with emotional clarity unmatched in fiction and in all but a few other true life stories. This book can give hope to people facing their own ordeals, as well as insight to those who have no appreciation for how life can change in an instant.
From an anonymous reader:
An extraordinary story of an extraordinary woman. This book is about Ms. Cynthia Paddock Doroghazi personal journey of a "miracle" recovery from a coma, due to brain injury; only to transit to a vegetative state. After two years of intense therapy Cynthia recovered to a fully functional person and returned to school to finally complete her master's degree at SAS.
This book is a must read for anyone interested in brain injury recovery; a truly inspiring book.
From James Abely:
Searching for the Open Door is the author's inspirational story of how she survived TBI and conquered her own disability. The book is also a must read for anyone who wants to understand health care system and how hospital negligence can result in serious patient injury. Buy this book.
From Rosemary Wescott:
This is an inspiring story about not giving up when all seems lost as well as a lesson on the realities of the health care industry. The medical industry has great powers to save and improve our quality of life when we get sick but the process is full of pitfalls that we can end up in when sloppiness and unaccountability linger in the system. This is a must read for anyone that is going to have a serious medical operation or is trying to cope with a situation created by a tragedy during a medical procedure.
There are many lessons packed into this short story. The author's last chapter, which describes the development of her personal religious beliefs is an added plus, which you can accept or reject without losing the important lessons the book has to offer.
