Items related to My Lost Summer
This memoir tells of my recovery from a coma when I was 13. Because I live a normal life now, people are surprised to learn that I have had a Traumatic Brain Injury, and they're always so curious: How did it happen? Do you remember anything? How long were you in a coma? Do you still ride horses? This book answers all those questions and more. An emotional Part I allows readers to experience the range of emotions my family felt as I lay unconscious. Part II describes my frustrations upon gaining consciousness: my right side was paralyzed and I couldn't speak. Part III tells how I was received once I returned to eighth grade and follows through to high school graduation, describing physical, social, and emotional problems I had along the way. This story shows how I met these problems with determination and how I accepted the ones I couldn't change.

From the Publisher:
Wonder what Randy McCloy, the lone survivor of the West Virginia mining accident is experiencing as he recovers from a coma? This book will give you a good idea.
From the Back Cover:
Libbi Evans enjoyed a normal summer for a 13 year old growing up in southwestern Ohio: attending basketball camp and ball games, Sunday dinners with her family, riding her horse to the Fourth of July parade. Then a simple misstep changed her ordinary life. Riding her horse on the road, Libbi turned to speak to her mom riding behind. At that instant Flash lost his footing, tossing Libbi over his shoulder head-first to the pavement. From that moment on, Libbi’s ordinary summer changes. As she lies unconscious in ICU, her parents must consider the worst-case scenario: a child dying. Babe and Elaine, divorced and on non-speaking terms, handle the same emotions in opposing ways. Feeling helpless, Babe spends five straight days at the hospital, hoping that somehow his sacrifice might aid his daughter’s recovery. Elaine takes a more active approach and devises a strategy for coaching her daughter out of her unconscious state. Will it be enough?
