In December of 2005 Bob Woodruff was given the chance of a lifetime for a news journalist. He was to take over the evening news chair of the ABC network television news. In January of 2006 he was sent on assignment to cover the US invasion into Iraq. The marine tank he was riding in was hit by an IED. Bob was seriously injured. He had brain damage along with schrapnel and rocks thrown into his skull and neck. This is the story of his miraculous recovery. It is also written by his wife, Lee. She tells of the trials she went through suddenly being a single parent to 4 small children, taking over all the household chores while trying to be with Bob every day not knowing if he would ever walk or talk again. Would he ever wake up? If he did, would he even remember her and the kids? It was a very good read!
