"Self Doodle"

This website is dedicated to Sara Baker and her recovery. 

Sara was critically injured in a car accident on October 24th, 2007.  Hours later she suffered a debilitating stroke that normally kills 95% of victims. After being airlifted to UC-Davis Medical Center in Sacramento, surgeons were able to remove the clot responsible for the stroke, but not reverse the damage already caused.  She was diagnosed the following day as having Locked-In Syndrome. 

Locked-In Syndrome is a rare neurological state where a person is fully conscious and aware of their surroundings, with all memories and cognition intact, but without the ability to control all voluntary muscles except those for the eyes. Sara is only able to communicate via those eye movements. 

This is her journey.
