At the age of 41, Trevor Greene, a journalist and a reservist in Canada with the Princess Patricia's Light Infantry, was deployed to Afghanistan, leaving behind his fiancee, Debbie and their young daughter Grace. On March 4th, 2006, while meeting with elders in a remote village in Kandahar Province, Trevor removed his helmet, out of respect, and without warning, a teenage boy landed a rusty axe in the back of his skull, nearly splitting his brain in two. Debbie was told Trevor would not come out of his coma and that he would never be able to move on his own. This is a remarkable story of Trevor's recovery, against all odds and the tireless love, patience and devotion of Debbie. Trevor not only learned how to talk and move again, but in July 2010, he was able to stand up at his wedding.

There is a forward by General Rick Hillier.
