Traumatic brain injury can interrupt without warning the life story that any one of us is in the midst of creating. When the author's 15-year-old son survives a car crash in spite of massive trauma to his brain, she and her family know only that his story has not ended. This title tells Ruthann Knechel Johansen's story.
