What did one man do when faced with the unspeakable, untimely
loss of his younger brother? He set out on a 2,186-mile thru-hike
of the Appalachian Trail. Now he shares his journey of healing on
the higher road in "Don's Brother: A Hike of Hope on the
Appalachian Trail. "A tribute to faith, family, and personal
fortitude, this moving account will captivate outdoor enthusiasts
and anyone who is navigating the tough emotional terrain of
grief.
When the author's younger brother, Don, was diagnosed with ALS,
Stephens promised to complete a thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail.
However, the author may not have mentioned his method of doing so.
Rather than carrying a full pack every day, he only occasionally
slept in the woods, instead often opting for shuttles to nearby
"trail towns" and beds. Along the way, he also committed to sharing
Don's story, using the trail name "Don's Brother" and raising
awareness for ALS.
While reflecting on his brother's deep faith, devotion to
family, and resolve in the face of his horrendous disease, the
author's personal accomplishment and profound healing will move
anyone to hit the road and take heart in the boundless capacity of
brotherly love.
