The Ballad of Bunny and Other Poems: Diary a Car Crash Beyond in Bloomington, MN

In May 2020, Catherine Hannah's drive to work ended in a serious car crash. These are her poems, her story.
This is her diary.
This honest account of road trauma recovery is a celebration of human spirit and the power of poetry for healing. Over 3.5 years, 76 poems and a sprinkle of photographs, Catherine navigates:
traumatic brain injury and post concussion syndrome
PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)
spinal fracture
rehabilitation and therapy
legal proceedings
returning to driving
change and loss in career, relationships and self identity
This poetry is a valuable window for loved ones and professionals into life after a traumatic event. But for survivors- this is a reminder that your feelings are valid and that
you are not alone
