<p>A multi-platinum rock star’s life meets an unexpected detour when a bump on the head reveals itself to be a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Told with honesty and humor, LAME BRAIN is Rick Roberts’ story of his entangled afflictions of TBI and Alcoholism. Approximately 1.7 million people experience a TBI in the United States every year, with accidental falls being the leading cause. TBI can strike anyone at any time, swiftly changing the course of life. For Rick, this meant losing his ability to walk (with doctors giving only a 50/50 chance that he would ever walk again), losing many of his innate guitar skills, and facing difficult decisions that he wasn’t quite ready to make. Rick openly shares the story of how he confronted these challenges while simultaneously fighting alcoholism. True to his talent for writing award winning lyrics and melodies, Rick now gives the world a story of healing told in his own compelling voice. He details the routines he created to reclaim his mobility, coordination, and sobriety. Refusing to accept his circumstances as a game ender, he instead considers them to be merely setbacks. Within the pages of LAME BRAIN: MY JOURNEY BACK TO REAL LIFE, readers will find inspiration to achieve their own miracles and increased awareness of TBI and alcoholism. After an accidental fall leaves Rick Roberts, multi-platinum rock star, with a small bump on his head he is stunned weeks later to experience a complete loss of mobility. When his doctors tell him that he has a 50/50 chance of ever walking again, he discovers how vital the brain is to coordinating all of our everyday movements. In this inspirational true story Rick shares his journey of recovery from TBI and alcoholism, leaning into his own determination, physical therapy, and tough choices. This inspirational memoir about recovery from TBI and alcoholism tells all.</p>
