A quest for tears : surviving traumatic brain injury / Seán Dwyer.
"At one moment, Seán Dwyer was driving home to finish edits on his novel. A moment later, a car accident left him unable to read, write coherent sentences--or even cry. This memoir of the accident and Dwyer's slow but inspiring recovery will help Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivors, their caregivers, and the medical community understand the inner workings of what neuroplasticity can do to heal an injured brain. A Quest for Tears details Dwyer's desire to return to his former life, and his eventual acceptance of Seán 2.0 as an equally valid human being."-- Back cover.
