SynopsisIn 1996, Cathy Crimmins, her husband, Alan, and their daughter, Kelly, were were on an idyllic lakeside holiday when a boating accident left Alan in a coma. The frontal lobes of his brain -- the area that controls speech, memory, movement, and personality -- had been severely damaged. "Where is the Mango Princess"? is the story of what happened to Cathy and her family after Alan woke up. From dealing with doctors and insurance plans to the enigmas of personality, morality, and modern science, this is a chronicle of an unforgettable transformation.
