It was a snap decision—a wrong choice made at the wrong time and in the wrong place—and for Robin Browne, it meant life would never be the same again.

The tragic car accident in her teenage years left Robin with severe brain injuries and at the mercy of not only the healthcare system, but the multitude of attorneys and court-appointed guardians who appeared more interested in her compensation money than her personal welfare.

Having managed to escape her alcohol-dependent mother, whose abusive ways led to Robin and her two sisters spending their formative years shuffled between foster homes, Robin found herself denied independence by the very authorities tasked with helping her adjust to life with such traumatic injuries.

Denied the means to assemble the skills required to live her new life to the fullest, Robin's cry-for-help suicide attempts put her deeper under the influence of the system. These desperate—yet justified—reactions to her situation resulted in her placement in a hospital for the elderly, while the authorities talked among themselves about what was to be done with Robin Browne.

An enlightening, harrowing read, all true—the author wants her voice to be heard and demands justice for everyone else trapped in the endless bureaucracy of uncaring carers.
