Summary

Kevin’s life was forever changed on a random Wednesday when he was just 20 years old. An aspiring musician at the time, he was planning to attend music school and pursue his dream of becoming a composer. A stroke dismantled every plan and everything in his life.

In Taken By Surprise, Kevin chronicles his battles with the stroke. After a risky brain surgery, he was in a coma for nearly a month and spent six weeks in an acute rehab facility to learn how to walk and talk all over again. Overcoming a myriad of challenges and obstacles, Kevin finally won the entire war.

Whether you are a stroke survivor yourself or a loved one of a survivor interested in learning how to cope, this book will help supply the tools to gracefully overcome any trauma that life may throw in your direction.

From the Author:

“In this book, I share my journey of injury, recovery, and reclamation, along with some tips, strategies, and nuggets of wisdom that have helped me throughout this painful and mysterious process. I came across most of the lessons I learned throughout the last several years, undoubtedly, the hard way; I want to save as many people as possible from the unnecessary headaches and burdens I endured and show you how to streamline your goals for reclaiming your life post-trauma.”
