I'm a journalist and writer trying to put life and brain back together.
I was working on a story in downtown Toronto when I was jumped by two men who didn't want their rampage recorded on my phone. I was wrestling with one when the other hit me with a sucker punch that knocked me out.
They kicked me in the head while I lay unconscious on the street. I have been told that the "rebooting" title here is in poor taste, given the way I was attacked but humour has helped me a great deal in my struggles.
The struggles haven't stopped since that sunny but ultimately dark day in October of 2017. My career and plans were destroyed when I hit the pavement.
At first I couldn't read. I couldn't watch tv or even talk to more than one person at a time. I could barely walk.
Fortunately, the part of my brain that controls stubbornness remained intact. Therapies and time have helped. But I have life altering injuries.
This website is part of my quest to find out what I can do and who I can become.
