When I suffered my first seizure while asleep, I didn’t know what had happened. I only knew that I felt as if I’d been run over by a Mack truck. It wasn’t until later, after my quality of life had deteriorated precipitously, that I finally received a diagnosis: nocturnal epileptic seizures. They were life-threatening—and uncontrollable, even with medication. Brain surgery offered me a way out. But after surgeons at Seattle’s Harborview Hospital removed my right temporal lobe and “tailored” a portion of my hippocampus, I awoke to a disorienting world in which my own face was no longer recognizable to me in the mirror. This is my story of pain, diagnosis, and recovery. My book brings forth the unseen effects TBI has on the survivor by using ananologies of what we experience. I hope it will aid others, whether patients or their supporters, as they navigate the uncertainties associated with TBI and recovery.

Very open and honest. A quick read as it captivates your attention. It makes you feel like you're not alone in all of the struggles that come with the affects of brain surgery.

A great resource unlike any other!

Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2015

This book offers a vivid and well written account of a Traumatic Brain Injury survivor's story. The author has written from her perspective offering readers a glimpse at the unique experiences persons with TBI struggle with on a daily basis. Readers living with a TBI or family members and friends supporting persons with a TBI will benefit greatly from the first hand account of the authors experiences and gain helpful insights into understanding TBI and the multifaceted struggles survivor's face.
