This is another in my series of books about traumatic brain injury. A great story about hope and perseverance in the face of incredible odds.

I found that I couldn't put this book down. The details, emotions and honesty that Brennan gives her reader is immensely profound. I often found myself digging deep into my own health problems - seizures - and my family's history (sister's brain tumor, maternal grandparents Alzheimer's and paternal grandparents Cancer). It was everything that I needed right now - gave me something to read that was informative yet emotional, allowed the reader to view the vulnerability of the writer, but also made me dig deep into myself and own heart up to my mind.
