DAN MACQUEEN BIOGRAPHY
Dan MacQueen is a resilient speaker who’s been there and conquered adversity. Dan’s life took an unexpected turn when a brain hemorrhage left him unable to walk, talk or even smile. But, instead of giving in, he fought back with determination. Through months and years of recovery, he discovered powerful strategies for overcoming obstacles and achieving your goals.
Dan MacQueen was a healthy, active 28-year-old who suddenly suffered from severe headaches. After an optometrist’s appointment to find the cause was cut short, he was handed a sealed envelope and told to go directly to hospital. What followed on June 21, 2014 was emergency brain surgery and a massive hemorrhage that shattered the life he knew. He spent weeks in a coma and months in a rehab hospital. What he learned along the way might surprise you: there is nothing like a brain injury to refocus the mind.
Driven by a positive attitude, Dan MacQueen battled to recover and return to a job he loved. He’s grateful for the doctors who saved him and the friends and family who supported him. Now he wants to pay it forward. The tools that helped Dan recover can be used by anyone facing adversity and challenges.
