The next, he was lying on a bedroom floor at 2 a.m., unable to move half his body or say a single word. After a massive ischemic stroke at age fifty-four, Vince lost his speech, his dominant hand, his career, and much of the life he once knew. Diagnosed with aphasia—a neurological condition that makes communication painfully difficult—he suddenly found himself trapped inside a mind that still worked while words refused to come out.

I discover a "lost" aunt, separated from our family due to racism and discrimination against the disabled. She had a mental disability due to childhood meningitis. She was taken away in 1942 when all Japanese Americans were considered the enemy and imprisoned. She then became a "ward" of the state. We believed she had died but 70 years later found her alive and living a few miles from our family farm. How did she survive? Why was she kept hidden? How did both shame and resilience empower my family to forge forward in a land that did not want them?

The prison doors that had trapped her son for over two decades were opened, and through his faith and sight, she was given hers.
