Patrick Custer: Battling a Brain Tumor with Hope and Grit

I think a lot of us, unfortunately, do forget that when life gets busy.
Ever wondered how someone copes with a life-threatening brain tumor diagnosis? This episode of 'Rooted Recovery Stories' flips the script as guest host Erica Frances from WKRN News 2 interviews the show's usual host, Patrick Custer. Patrick opens up about his harrowing journey through multiple brain surgeries and the grueling medical complications that followed. His story isn't just about survival; it's about the incredible resilience and hope that kept him going even when the odds were stacked against him.
Patrick’s candid recounting of his experience offers a raw look at the challenges of tapering off medication and the critical role therapy played in his recovery. Through his words, you’ll hear about the importance of embracing life’s tough lessons rather than succumbing to a victim mentality.
This episode is part of a special collaboration with Nashville Neurosurgery Associates, aiming to shed light on the struggles faced by those dealing with neurosurgical disorders, especially during the holiday season when many feel overlooked. If you’re looking for a dose of inspiration or just want to hear a compelling story of human endurance, this episode is a must-listen.
