In 2011, he suffered a seizure at home, leaving him struggling to cope with everyday challenges. A year earlier, a serious accident had left him with severe frontal lobe damage, raising concerns about his future. The book is an intimate look at James' journey as he navigates the lasting effects of his accident on his life and relationships. With his wife Bev by his side, he confronts the difficulties they face and finds ways to adapt and rebuild. This is a heart-wrenching and ultimately uplifting story about one man's fight back to be the best husband and father he can be. Touching Distance offers a unique insight into the world of elite sports and the human spirit's capacity for resilience in the face of adversity.
