LEFT NEGLECTED introduces readers to thirty-something Sarah Nickerson, who, like so many women today, is driven to succeed at home and at work, multi-tasking all day long, and spread extremely thin. The morning that changes her life forever begins typically, in her car on the way to work, as she is about to make a business call. While driving.
Sarah takes her eyes off the road for one second too long, and is involved in a terrible accident that results in a traumatic brain injury. Her memory and intellect are still intact, but she loses the ability to perceive information coming from the left - as if the left side of everything no longer exists. As she works to recover, Sarah also learns to pay attention to - and heal the rifts within - other parts of here life she has left neglected, mainly her husband, her children, and her previously distant mother.
