The Never Ending Journey : Living with Brain Injury

An inspiring story of courage and strength in the face of adversity. As a young, dedicated medical student, Antoinette Anthony-Pillai's future was mapped out. But when a routine operation for a tonsillectomy went horribly wrong, Antoinette's brain was starved of oxygen and her life took a dramatically different turn. She and her family came face to face with the harsh realities of living with brain injury. The Never Ending Journey is a moving account of Antoinette's daily struggle to cope with her condition and her fight to regain control of her life. It is an honest, captivating account of the difficulties that Antoinette and her family have faced as they have come to terms with the accident and its consequences.

As she draws you into her world, you will understand just a little of what it is like to live in her shoes. As she tells her remarkable story, you will see how her faith in the God of miracles and the love and support of her family have seen her through. This is a story of courage, determination and unconditional love. It will be an inspiration for any who are going through difficult times.
