In 2006, Sgt. Braxton McCoy (Ret.) was severely wounded by a suicide bomber in Ramadi, Iraq, and later told he may never walk again. After nearly a decade of physical therapy and rehabilitation Braxton has not only regained the majority of his strength, but he has now climbed mountains and competed in endurance races. This book follows his story from the day he was wounded through his nearly decade long rehabilitation. Along the way he finds himself trying to adapt to the world with a mind and body he no longer understands. Braxton battles not just physical and mental trauma, but a host of other issues such as nihilism, opioid and alcohol addiction, suicide and a Traumatic Brain Injury. In the end, he is able to work through all of these challenges, but like Odysseus, he and those who read his story are changed forever.
