Discover 20 inspiring brain injury recovery eBooks — written from lived experience, grounded in neuroplasticity, and created to empower lasting hope.

Welcome to My eBook Library – A Legacy of Lived Experience

Last updated: July 2025

Over the past decade, I have written and published 19 eBooks. Each one grew out of my journey living with a brain injury and an invisible disability.

These eBooks were created slowly and carefully. They reflect years of healing, insight, and quiet determination. I wrote them to offer encouragement, reflection, and tools for others walking a similar path.

Inside each eBook, you will find stories, questions, and lived-wisdom. These are not medical guides. They are companions for the road — written to offer hope, clarity, and connection.

If something here speaks to your heart, I invite you to share it. You can also support the mission of Second Chance to Live by purchasing an eBook or passing it along to someone who may benefit.

Thank you for visiting. Your presence matters.
