Patty & Pat Horan
Pat Horan, CPT US Army (ret), and his wife Patty Horan joined the program to discuss what it is to live with a traumatic brain injury. In a candid interview we cover:
Part 1: Pat’s career, how he was wounded and how Patty was notified.
Part 2: Rehab, Patty talks the pressure of researching & choosing facilities for follow-on rehab
Part 3: Living today, finding purpose in life and the frustrations of not being able to read and to write.
When asked about how his life is Pat responded “Every day I wake up and the first thing I do is thank God I’m still alive, that’s the greatest thing ever. The second thing is Patty, everything she’s done since I got hurt is just incredible, putting me back together was because of her.” An incredible story.
