In 1997 Daniel Trush a bright active outgoing twelve-year-old collapsed on the basketball court and fell into a deep coma. Rushed to the hospital he was found to have five previously undetected aneurysms in his brain. One had burst causing a massive cerebral hemorrhage. While Daniel remained comatose the uncontrolled pressure inside his skull caused him to suffer multiple strokes. Tests showed that his brain functions had flat-lined and doctors would soon tell his parents his chances of survival were slim to none--or that he d likely remain in a vegetative state if he awakened. But the doctors were wrong. Daniel s traumatic injury did not bring his life to a premature end. Thirty days after lapsing into a coma he would return to consciousness barely able to blink or smile. Two years later he took his first extraordinary steps out of a wheelchair. A decade after being sped to the emergency room Daniel Trush completed the New York Marathon. But his incredible journey into the future had just begun. With music having played a crucial role in his recovery Danny and his family launched Daniel s Music Foundation a groundbreaking nonprofit organization for people with disabilities. In time DMF would be honored on a Broadway stage by the New York Yankees gaining notoriety and admiration across America. Daniel s Music is the gripping story of Daniel s recovery against odds experts said were insurmountable; of medical science faith and perseverance combining for a miracle; and of an average family turning their personal trials into a force that brings joy inspiration and a powerful sense of belonging to all those whose lives they touch.
