In an Instant A Family's Journey of Love and Healing

"[N AN INSTANT] could easily have been a maudlin celebrity tie-in, sugar-coated with inspiration and soggy with tears. Instead it finds both Woodruffs shooting from the hip, writing with candor about their ordeal and describing it with an intimacy that couldnt be captured on camera. Here on the page they are free to vent about the shock, stress and soul-shaking uncertainty that each of them endured....Thus humanized...the Woodruffs reveal both the strengths and weaknesses that they brought to coping with Bobs crisis. Their frankness heightens the books impact, as does its wider subject: the increasing frequency in Iraq of explosion-induced head injuries like those Bob suffered. This book means to draw compassion and attention to those casualties, and it surely will."Woodruff, Lee is the author of 'In an Instant A Family's Journey of Love and Healing', published 2007 under ISBN 9781400066674 and ISBN 1400066670.
