Sit down with co-hosts Mel and Chris to learn what their Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) procedures were like, the realities of recovering from brain surgery, and how they feel now, 2 years after. This episode does not shy away from the visceral parts of their experiences, including Chris' unique impressions from being awake during his DBS placement.
