Mission Possible has been been declared a winner in the prestigious Eric Hoffer Award for Books, an annual honor given for independently published works. Dr. Obrecht's book was accorded Honorable Mention in the Montaigne Medal Competition, in the category of Legacy Nonfiction, a sub-category and an additional distinction beneath the broader Eric Hoffer Awards umbrella. This recognition is given for books that illuminate, progress, or redirect thought about vital world issues and the human achievements that produce such changes in society.

Drama, humor, tears and the joy of traveling around the world to help others -- whether in the devastation of a tsunami, the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, or in the jungles of South America, the very people Dr. Obrecht helps teach her, in turn, much about life, living and the value of relationships. Through Doc Dawn's experiences, you may discover more about yourself and your purpose in life.

DocDawn lives in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, with her husband, Erik Landvik, where she writes and consults in addiction medicine.
