A single, violent impact ended one life and forced another to begin. Forgetting to Remember is a raw, unfiltered memoir about living with a traumatic brain injury and the aftermath no one prepares you for. This is not story of recovery. There is no finish line, no return to normal. Memory fades. Pain lingers. Identity fractures. This book records what happens when the person you were no longer exists in the way you remember.
Through hospital rooms, neurological testing, seizures, chronic pain, failed relationships, and cognitive decline, Evan Folan documents the long, exhausting process of rebuilding a life that no longer feels familiar. He writes honestly about the grief of losing a former self, the fear of an uncertain future, and the quiet isolation that comes with an invisible injury.
