But overcoming adversity, even an injury as serious as a broken hip, was nothing new for him. Heâd spent a portion of his childhood in leg braces. Doctors told him heâd never walk again thanks to a degenerative hip condition. He wasnât about to give up then, any more than he was in the wake of that parachute training accident. Instead, he went on to serve in combat as a member of SEAL Team Seven, seeing action in Iraq and ultimately winning the Army Commendations Medal, among other awards. Now Patrick wants to take the lessons he learned on and off the battlefield and apply them to everyday life. He offers inspiration to all whoâve faced the kind of adversity he has. In chapters drawn directly from his own experience, he sketches a heart-wrenching tale of salvaging lifelong victories out of crushing defeats, and hope out of heartache. From being branded a âcrippleâ to successfully negotiating BUD/S (Basic Underwater Demolition/SEALS) training, from agonizing pain to heroic achievement, from devastating loss to finding his faith, Patrickâs story is one of discovering ways to do everything he possibly can, instead of making excuses for what he canât. An American hero who never surrendered is now sharing his lessons with those fighting their own battles to emerge from their dark places into the light and lead a better, more productive life. 541 $d 20170717. 650 7 $a Life skills. 650 0 $a Resilience (Personality trait.) 650 7 $a Self-help techniques. 700 $a Land, Jon, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20180118012134.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AE2338A2C9D211E7A7A4832D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
