Publisher's summary

Matthew Heneghan weaves an intricate web that is his life, in a style all his own. Once a medic in the Canadian Forces and a paramedic in the civilian world, he has a varied and traumatic past. Facing childhood abuse, addiction, suicidal ideation, incredible loss, and mental illness, he finds himself left rudderless. Matthew chronicles his journey towards a better way of coping.

If you have spent time in the military, paramedicine, or just love devouring an exquisitely written tale, this book is a must-have. Learning how Matthew transitions from the stereotypical position of "hero" to becoming the hero of his own life is nothing less than inspiring.

OUT F#CKING STANDING, TROOP!!!

I normally listen to audio books to fall asleep, and this book was completely useless in that regard.

In every other way, I cannot recommend this one highly enough. The author pulls no punches when it comes to personal accountability, and he tells his story in a raw and unvarnished manner that is rare in the world today. In addition to being deeply introspective and insightful, this book also has moments that are funny as hell, especially if you've spent any time in the military.

This book made me laugh and cry, and made me want to listen to it again. But not when I'm trying to fall asleep.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
