Book excerpt: My Last Breath tells the powerful and inspiring story of a young man's journey to overcome the consequences of a traumatic brain injury. Thanks to his perseverance, courage, and ingenuity--designing a customized device with his brother that enables him to pen his own words--author Josh LaRue shares sometimes difficult, sometimes heartbreaking, but always encouraging recollections of his recovery, rehabilitation, and personal growth. With moving, honest poetry and engaging, lucid prose, a story unfolds that shows how it is possible to overcome the challenges and obstacles of disability--even in the face of seemingly impossible circumstances. As much a tale of the people, places, and services that are available for persons affected by disability, discover how positive support of family, friends, loved ones, and the community can influence the success of those who are enduring pain, frustration, and countless hours of rehabilitative therapy fighting for their new lives and independence. The inspirational story of Josh LaRue is now featured in an Emmy nominated documentary, My Last Breath, by award winning director, Cy Dodson (Triumph Pictures). http: //www.mylastbreathfilm.com/ joshpaullarue.com
