RACT Episode 6 - Paul Allen
Thirty years ago at the end of a white-water rafting trip, engineering graduate Paul Allen was still wet from
being in the water, so found himself riding atop a moving trailer as they made their way back upstream. The vehicle lost control, and the trailer flipped with Paul trapped underneath. His head collided with a concrete culvert.
In this episode we’ll get frank with Paul, as he
speaks about his life with an acquired brain injury, and the physical and emotional challenges he’s faced through the journey to recovery.
