Synopsis
Lee and Bob Woodruff share the story of their relationship, marriage, and careers, and the bright prospects for their future after Bob was selected to be co-anchor of the ABC Nightly News. In January 2006, however, while on assignment in Iraq for ABC News, Bob was severely injured by an improvised explosive device (IED), suffering a traumatic brain injury. Lee and Bob tell of his difficult step-by-step rehabilitation, and how their lives have changed, as together they face the difficult road ahead.

Industry Reviews
"[N AN INSTANT] could easily have been a maudlin celebrity tie-in, sugar-coated with inspiration and soggy with tears. Instead it finds both Woodruffs shooting from the hip, writing with candor about their ordeal and describing it with an intimacy that couldn't be captured on camera. Here on the page they are free to vent about the shock, stress and soul-shaking uncertainty that each of them endured....Thus humanized...the Woodruffs reveal both the strengths and weaknesses that they brought to coping with Bob's crisis. Their frankness heightens the book's impact, as does its wider subject: the increasing frequency in Iraq of explosion-induced head injuries like those Bob suffered. This book means to draw compassion and attention to those casualties, and it surely will."

    This book is a remarkable story about Bob Woodruff's traumatic brain injury recovery and the effect it has on the family and friends of the injured. Interwoven with "flashbacks" of their courtship and marriage, this book covers it all - the notification, the panic, the bargaining, the breaking point and finally, the healing.

    This book is a true love story in a marriage tested by distance, ambition and injury. You won't be disappointed.
