What happens when a veteran journalist’s brain decides to rewrite his vocabulary?
In Brainstorm, Adrian Robson chronicles his unexpected journey from a carefree sports editor in Bermuda to a patient undergoing awake brain surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Diagnosed with an oligodendroglioma, Adrian’s life is turned upside down—but not without a profound sense of humor.
When the tumor is removed, Adrian wakes up to a bizarre new reality: his brain and his mouth are no longer on the same page. Suddenly, everyone is named "Neville," ordering a cappuccino becomes an impossible puzzle, and innocent sentences turn into hilarious, unintended insults.
But this isn’t just a story about illness; it’s a testament to the power of laughter, resilience, and the extraordinary people who help us survive.
