Inspirational and raw

This is a must read story! I read this in one day, I couldn’t put it down. Fatherman Down starts with an awful car accident of a loved and dedicated father. He struggles in the hospital as he attempts to make sense of the events surrounding that day. His life is a wreck as he sees it, with nothing to look forward to. He has so many questions about his recovery, his employment, and more than anything his children. This is an inspirational read that anyone can relate to! When I read this I was going through a difficult situation in my life. This book brought perspective to some things I had lost sight of. Humanity has the capacity to bounce back from anything.
