Brian's life took an unexpected turn at 46 when a devastating stroke in 2011 reshaped his world. With little support and an uncertain future, he found healing through journaling—a simple act that blossomed into a new passion as an author.
Navigating the physical and emotional aftermath of stroke, largely on his own, Brian intimately understood the daily unspoken struggles that both survivors and caregivers face. He experienced firsthand the immense burden placed on unprepared family members, many of whom navigate the demanding 24/7 caregiving role without any guidance. The complexities only deepened when narcissism entered the mix, turning an already challenging situation into an emotional battleground.
Determined to share his hard-earned wisdom, Brian now dedicates his writing to offering practical advice, emotional support, and hope to stroke survivors, caregivers, and those dealing with narcissism. His books are a lifeline for anyone facing these trials, providing readers with the tools to navigate their toughest moments and find strength in the face of adversity.
Find out more about Traumatic Brain Injury through the eyes of a survivor. Learn about what it feels like to be looking from the inside out. Some of what you will read is not available in any other books.
Once exposed to TBI, the family and partner normally take on the unrewarding role of caregiver, never considering for a second that they don't have any formal training. Diving headfirst into a situation they know very little about, they may find themselves in the deep end, having bitten off more than they can chew.
Informal caregiving is a relentless and demanding job with little to no reward. It is a role taken on out of love, unconditional love for the person they are caring for. Many relationships have been put to the test and pushed to their limits. Few have endured such an extreme challenge.
