With his hardworking, loving family supporting him, the sky is the limit. But when a tragic car accident leaves him quadriplegic, Ray's life changes forever. Not only can't he hold a football, but he can't even feed himself. And nothing in his world will ever be the same. In a true story of overcoming tragedy, The Life I Didn't Expect chronicles Ray's grueling journey from boyhood to manhood with the challenges of quadriplegia.

Whether you know someone facing disability or are sizing up your own obstacles, Ray Cerda, Jr. will take you on an incredible journey you won't soon forget. Because with a little determination, guidance, and prayer, you too can move your own mountains.
