So much for the vaunted autopsy...
One year ago: Terri Schiavo's body was cremated as disagreements continued between her husband and her parents, who were unable to have their own independent expert observe her autopsy.

The book's March publication date coincided with the one-year anniversary of Terri Schiavo's death in Florida. Nunley wanted to honor the memory of the young woman who died March 31, 2005, after doctors removed her feeding tube.
Nunley felt an affinity for the Florida woman, partly because she saw similarities in Schiavo's and her son's brain injuries and partly to show that there can be hope in the wake of trauma.

Station 5 is as follows: SIMON HELPS JESUS
Jesus: My strength is gone; I can no longer bear the cross alone. And so the legionnaires make Simon give me aid. This Simon is like you, my other self. Give me your strength. Each time you lift some burden from another's bck, you lift as with your very hand the cross' awful weight that crushes me.
I reply: Lord, make me realize that every time I wipe a dish, pick up an object off the floor; assist a child in some small task, or give another preference in traffic or the store; each time I feed the hungry, clothe the naked, teach the ignorant, or land my hand in any way - it matters not to whom - my name is Simon. And the kindness I extend to them I really give to you.
