Episode 40 - Not by the Letter
In this episode, we discuss recovery after Post Concussion Syndrome and the importance of access to the classroom, even when it seems impossible.
Join Mihai and debut author Paulina Turczynska as they discuss the long and little-known road to recovery faced by those suffering from Post Concussion Syndrome. They share stories about making one's own adventures while stuck in bed, talk about pursuing ambitions despite life being put on pause, and remind teachers that the best solutions to unusual problems are often found when you choose not to go by the letter.
