About the event

Author Talk: Better Than Ordinary by Trina Bigham
Please join us on September 29, at 6:30 PM at the Millicent Library Auditorium for an author talk with local author Trina Bigham. This event is free and open to the public.

Sometimes the darkest moments actually light the way.

When Trina’s water broke at 24 weeks pregnant on a sweltering night in Bangkok, her life changed forever. Her son, Brennan, was born fighting to survive, facing medical crises, near-death experiences, and a diagnosis of cerebral palsy.

Determined to give Brennan the best life possible, Trina became a tireless advocate, navigating therapies and alternative treatments across the globe. Before YouTube and Google, she relied on resourcefulness, determination, and a growing network of experts to guide her.

Over 18 years, Trina’s journey evolved alongside Brennan’s, transforming her emotionally and spiritually into a champion for his potential. From fragile infancy to triumphant independence, Better Than Ordinary chronicles their remarkable path, offering hope, insight, and inspiration to anyone facing life’s challenges. This is a story of perseverance and love that redefines what’s possible.
