Beyond Stillness: Stories After Stroke

Long and Winding Road - Anthony Parsons' Story


Listen Later

This week on Beyond Stillness: Stories After Stroke we spotlight guest Anthony Parsons who was a professional drummer in the rock band Problem with Polly.  On December 29, 2021, Anthony’s brain was starved of oxygen for an hour.  After three weeks in a coma, Anthony woke with a feeling of total acceptance.  And has since been contemplating the depths of the experience and its meaning for his life.  Anthony invites us to join him in reflecting upon who he is and why he is here.  Anthony’s Story is entitled, “Long and Winding Road.”
