Disconnected bridges the gap between medical understanding and lived experience, giving voice to the often-overlooked struggles of brain injury survivors. Its unique blend of storytelling and workbook-style reflection creates space for healing, self-discovery, and validation when words are hard to find.

Disconnected: A Life Rewritten by Brain Injury offers a raw, relatable, and empowering roadmap for navigating the invisible aftermath of brain trauma. Through powerful insights and practical guidance, it helps survivors, caregivers, and professionals understand the emotional toll, reclaim lost identity, and begin rewriting life with purpose and clarity.

"Disconnected is the book I wish I had when my son suffered his brain injury. It captures the silent battles we faced—confusion, grief, and the desperate need to be understood. Dr. Jill’s words are validating, practical, and deeply human. Every survivor and caregiver needs this."
