About this listen

What started out as back pain quickly changed Dana’s life. Before ten-year-old Dana could make it to the hospital, she was paralyzed from the waist down due to an auto-immune disease. Despite her reluctance to accept her “new normal,” Dana attended a tennis camp that opened her eyes to disability sports. Tennis made her stronger than she ever thought possible, making her the confident woman she is today. Tune in to hear US Paralympian Dana Mathewson’s story of turning tragedy into triumph.
