Damage Control: A Brain Injury Survivor Helps You Beat the Odds

By Phil Slott and Mary Spears

It's October of 1993 in Hawaii. A drunk driver hurtles toward a bend in the road. From the opposite direction, accomplished advertising creative and triathlete Phil Slott takes a routine drive. As he eases into the bend, he meets the drunk driver skidding into the wrong lane and, in one second, Phil's life takes a dramatic turn. As he struggles to stay alive in the ICU, Phil's organs, bones, and much of his brain are broken. What he and everyone else come to realize is that his creative drive and passion remain intact. And these abilities serve as the foundation for his arduous yet inspiring road to recovery. This is more than his story. Written in collaboration with his wife, Mary Spears, "Damage Control: A Brain Injury Survivor Helps You Beat the Odds" is a tough-love conversation and guide for those who have survived a traumatic brain injury (TBI) to help them regain hope and quality of life.
