Any trauma… life or death experience, can either make you stronger or wallow in despair. The choice each individual makes in that situation says a lot of who they are, but more importantly, who they will become!

Brett Green continues to strive and improve to meet challenges that doctor’s once thought impossible. Throughout his journey, his determination that “This is Not it” has become his mantra and has helped him to heal and rebuild a meaningful and joyful life.

Brett has “come back” from an ordeal…a journey that few can only imagine! He has persevered when the medical field gave up on him and told him, “This was it!”-- That there was little chance for further improvement.

Brett chose not to accept that prognosis. For nearly six years he has worked through the adversity, the pain, coaxing his body to do what it didn’t want to do, the heartbreaking disappointments and also the incredible highs of each success.

Despite his remarkable and unpredictable recovery, he may always be in need of some form of rehabilitation. Still, he has chosen to adapt! As he has adapted over time, so has his family, friends and loved ones! People no longer see what Brett may not be able to do – they only see what he can do and what he has accomplished!

Brett continues to go beyond boundaries - Brett lives!

Brett’s innermost passion is raising his children; and also helping other survivor’s in need of court or mental health services. He maintains his business and license to practice therapy.

Hopefully this book will offer valuable insight to others facing similar situations. If there is any support that Brett may provide or a service that he can perform to assist you, please feel free to contact him through –

My brother, Max is a well liked person and everyone you talk to says what a well-mannered and polite person he is. Very sports minded, he is a one-eyed supporter of the Penrith Panthers Rugby League Football Club. He also loves cricket and watching the Olympic Games.

His love for travelling brought him to the Whitsunday Islands, South Australia, Canberra and Western Australia three times. Shortly he is heading to Brisbane.

He received his own unit from Department of House fourteen years ago and he has not let his disability stop him in anyway. He is a wonderful brother.

I had always bounced back from my fears. Always. This didn’t feel the same…it didn’t seem possible to go through another very complicated surgery after barely surviving the last. How much can a single body take? I was strong, but this was a third major, very major surgery, the same one that had gone horribly wrong ten years ago. Considering the odds, although this one could save me, it was much more likely to kill me…
