A brilliant and honest book, written from two perspectives. The
first half is by a professional, Dr Priyanka Pradhan and gives an
inside account of the brain's functions and the perspective of a
Neuropsychologist. It's simple to understand and relatable to a
patient or carer. Personally, I found the second half really
useful, written by Anna, who suffered a concussion. As a brain
injury sufferer, a lot of her story rang true to me. The advice and
tips laid out were easy to follow and put into practice. Having two
writers giving two sides of a story is really powerful. I'd
recommend this book to anyone who is living with concussion/brain
injury and also to family and friends of the victim.

This book is truly a guide that should be distributed to EVERY
patient and caregiver managing a concussion or TBI from the very
beginning.
It is much more than a guidebook; it is a definitive roadmap that
offers insights, information, and real advice on how to recover in
the best possible way.
I found myself more committed to helping others and so thankful you
wrote this.
