Episode 3 - The System

After three intense weeks in ICU, Pete moves to the acute spinal unit — alive, stable, and finally regaining his voice.

But with stability comes a new weight: confronting the long-term reality of a high spinal cord injury.

From the confronting ASIA test and the first raw conversations about quadriplegia, to tiny sparks of hope like the twitch of a thumb, Pete and Emma share the emotional rollercoaster of this next chapter.

With honesty, humour, and practical insight, they reveal what it’s like to balance fear with determination, vulnerability with resilience, and how small wins can feel like miracles.
