She clawed her way to the surface — gasping, terrified, furious — and grabbed the wall with both hands. She has been grabbing walls ever since.Growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, in the shadow of a dangerous father and a mother whose love made her stay, TJ learned early that life does not negotiate.
