Abstract

To pay for my child’s urgent surgery, I ignored my old injuries and my husband’s protests to enter the rock-climbing championship.

As I neared the summit, just a few feet from the finish line, a frantic voice crackled through my earbud.

"Brooke, stop climbing!"

The voice was raspy, laced with a deep, consuming desperation. Strangely, it sounded hauntingly familiar.

"He’s going to release your locking carabiner. You’re going to fall, and you’ll be paralyzed!"

Before I could even process the warning, a sharp click echoed from my waist. The tension in my safety harness vanished.
