I'll Be OK, It's Just A Hole In My Head

I'll Be OK, It's Just a Hole in My Head: A Memoir on Heartbreak and Head Trauma is a humorous and thoughtful cross between Jill Bolte Taylor's My Stroke of Insight and Jenny Lawson's Furiously Happy. Shocking and funny, Hayes' memoir shares the true story of a sudden brain hemorrhage at the age of twenty-two - and the heartache and strength that it took to overcome it. .
