Dan McSkimming was a Deputy for 18 years and on the SWAT team (SET - Special Enforcement Team) for 13 years— all with the Santa Barbara Sheriff's Office. A normal adjustment of his rifle led to a visit to a chiropractor which would change his life forever. A stroke sent him to Cottage Hospital—the same Hospital of his birth. At age 43, Dan had to learn to live all over again—how to talk, eat, communicate, love…
This is the true story of a shocking tragedy and trauma, the fear, despair, and triumph of a first responder, in his own words

He lives in Southern California, and refuses to permit his physical limitations to stop him from remaining active.
