"My Brain is Draining Into My Stomach" | Spina Bifida


Listen Later

What do you do when your spine decides to "leak" before you're even born, leaving you with a "jizzy back rat" and a tube running from your brain to your belly? We’ve covered Spina Bifida before, but never quite like this. Meet Joshua, a man who has spent 48 years navigating the world from a wheelchair and dealing with an exposed spine. AKA Spina Bifida. The fellas get up close and personal with the medical realities of "leaky" spines and the surgical interventions that happen before a baby even hits the delivery room. The wildest part? Joshua can throw a spear further than all of us. We also dig into Joshua's experience in navigating a long distance marriage, and it's adorably heartwarming.
