I Got Your Back

By T.A. Benson

I Got Your Back is a powerful, darkly humorous, and deeply human novella set inside a spinal cord injury unit, where survival is measured not only in vital signs, but in trust, resilience, and compassion.

Miles, a former combat veteran turned nurse, arrives on the SCI unit after a professional setback that has shaken his confidence and sense of identity. Far from the high-adrenaline ICU work he once envisioned, he finds himself caring for patients whose lives have been permanently altered-and alongside coworkers navigating burnout, bureaucracy, and the quiet violence of institutional medicine.

As Miles begins teaching emergency skills to a unit long overlooked by the hospital, he forms unexpected bonds with patients fighting to reclaim dignity, colleagues pushed to their limits, and mentors who recognize his potential before he can see it himself. When life-or-death moments erupt without warning, the line between healer and human blurs, forcing Miles to confront grief, loyalty, and what it truly means to have someone's back.

Blending sharp wit with unflinching honesty, I Got Your Back is a story about second chances, moral courage, and the people who show up when it matters most. It is a tribute to nurses, patients, and caregivers-and to the quiet acts of bravery that rarely make headlines but change lives all the same.
