In the blink of an eye and the twist in a road 11 years ago, the lives of two young sisters changed for ever.
Shannon and Erica Deering were teenagers looking ahead to full and active lives.
Shannon, now 29, had won a scholarship to play softball in Florida. Erica, now 26, was still in high school but had hopes of becoming a lawyer.
All that changed in a horrific crash when both sisters suffered dreadful spinal injuries that left them quadriplegic.
