Accidental Valentine

Aditus and I did some brainstorming, and we have come up with a new twist for the prompt blog.  We'll still be featuring our usual Prompt Team prompts, but on the second Friday of the month, we thought we'd try something different.  We will start the story, and then ask you to continue it in the comment section.  On the fourth Friday of the month, we will post the completed story in the blog.   Since today is Valentine's Day, we came up with a theme of love gone accidentally right.

Diverse Connections

When I interviewed for a job a few years ago, one of the questions they asked me was "what does diversity mean to you, and why is it important?".  I told a story in that interview about a woman I had worked with at my old job who uses a wheelchair and is also non-speaking.  She had a communication device and was capable of using it; however, she wasn't very motivated to do so.  She frequently refused therapy and was depressed.  I knew her abilities and things that she enjoyed doing in the past,
