After the birth of her Fifth child, Lindsey O’Connor ends up
in a 47-day medically induced coma after oxygen deprivation because of a
bleed-out. The Long Awakening tells the story of everything she went through
during this time. Although I don’t frequently read memoirs, I decided to read
this book detailing the struggles Lindsey’s family and she faced dealing with
the coma and then returning to her family following her coma. There were many
difficult topics Lindsey addressed in this book, and her strong faith was one
of the things that stood out the most for me. Her family also seemed like such
a great support to her, and I especially saw this great relationship when her
18 year old daughter returned home to take care of the new baby and other
children while her mother was in a coma. This book was definitely one I will
recommend to others.
