'Brainstorm is a strong, compelling story of courage and personal transformation. Blackwell has obviously done a lot of research and invested his spirit in the characters as he tells the story of Garnet’s harrowing medical condition through the three very different perspectives: Garnet’s, his wife, and their friend, Ella. They are all unique and compelling characters and Blackwell build’s strong character arcs for all three... he does a fabulous job of making the reader care deeply about them and what happens to them.' -Winslow EliotInspired by true events, this fast-paced and compelling medical thriller chronicles a handicapped family’s struggle to overcome seemingly insurmountable odds. An inspiring story of personal transformation, it documents their life-and-death struggles and their ability to give so much when they have so little.Their plight is set in stark contrast to the materialism of contemporary society and the ridicule and rejection they suffer as a result of their handicaps-short term memory loss and epilepsy.Garnet Dewitt has been having epileptic seizures for as long as he can remember-some so severe he wakes up in the hospital bruised and battered with no recollection of what happened. Finally, doctors are able to isolate the area of his brain responsible for the seizures. But during surgery, something goes terribly wrong and it’s unclear if he’ll ever recover.In the meantime, his handicapped wife Ella, struggling with public ridicule and dwindling finances, has a terrible fall that lands her in hospital and doctors discover she has a brain tumor that must be operated on. But she slips into a coma and enters a dark and eerily surreal world.Debbie Dupree, the epitome of a capitalist machine, is her only hope for survival. Debbie starts helping them to ease her guilty conscience just as her own life begins to unravel. But is she too late?A heartwarming yet paradoxically frightening story of selfless humanitarianism in the face of overwhelming personal tragedy.
