The Blink Of An Eye - Rikke Schmidt Kjaergaard

This is a small book that tells a big story about Rikke Schmidt Kjaergaard, a young mother and wife,  who within a day or so falls terribly ill with bacterial meningitis, ending up in Intensive Care for weeks.  As she remains unconscious for weeks, it is her family that document what is happening to her and the struggles that staff have to keep her alive.  Although this horrid disease changed a lot in her life, forcing her to relearn basics like eating and walking again, she was lucky to survive.  It was a compelling read. 5/5
