An emotive insight into the true story of Hugh's journey back to life after a birthday celebration that went badly wrong. In an unimaginable situation, faced with the prospect of living life as a bed-bound, ghost-like figure of his former self, Hugh reveals how his life was utterly transformed. What propels this chronicle of recovery is the personal daily diaries written during and after Hugh's nearly fatal brain injury. They expose the reflections of family members throughout the good and the bad times, and will take the reader on a journey filled with raw emotion. For months there seemed to be no way back from this near-death experience. It was impossible to know it, but despite everyday adversity and against professional opinion, Hugh pulled through. Life would resume, but to what extent?
