In this episode of Spinal Cast, we dive into the inspiring story of Linda Carter, whom her brother Steve affectionately calls "Wonder Woman." After a devastating snow tubing accident led to a T12/L1 incomplete spinal cord injury, Linda has been on a journey of resilience and persistence. Living with paralysis is a complex experience, filled with physical challenges and emotional ups and downs, especially when it strikes during the prime of life. Yet, Linda has faced it all with determination, grit, and a touch of humor, surrounded by the right people and supported by the unwavering bond she shares with Steve.

Now, as Linda navigates retirement and the inevitable changes that come with aging, their sibling connection remains stronger than ever. This episode explores their relationship, the strength they draw from each other, and how Linda's remarkable career, painting, love for family, friends and animals have shaped her into the "Wonder Woman" Steve admires so much. Despite the challenges ahead, one thing is clear: these two will always have each other's backs.
