Having overcome the prognosis of never walking again, Brian describes how his recovery was further disrupted by more uncertainty around his health. Yet, these challenges were met by Brian’s indomitable stubbornness, and also the friendships made with fellow patients, such as Tariq. In refusing to be cowed by the adversity he faced, Brian became a self-described ‘cantankerous old git’, and there is perhaps no better example than when he refused to follow his hospital’s instructions to pick a wheelchair “for the rest of your life”.
In more candid conversation, Brian and Harriett discuss his journey through physiotherapy, learning to crawl and walk again. The importance of choosing the right environment is a key theme in this episode, as is the significance of the people that surround and support you in recovery, which is a ‘collaborative process’.
