Fortitude's Footing

Fortitude's Footing is the powerful memoir of an active, creative woman whose life is dramatically altered while on a bus trip with family and friends through the western Pennsylvania Highlands. In a flash, she is incapacitated, and her foray into the wilderness of a major brain hemorrhage begins. Her counterpunch to sudden powerlessness -- the will to recover -- inspires and gives hope to others facing a lengthy rehabilitation from traumatic brain injury, as well as to those who care for them.
