Description: Concussion by Michael Lipman, Frankie Lipman Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The revealing, confronting and shocking story of how sports-related concussion and the damage it causes can change a persons life and the impact it has on their family. Publisher Description Concussion has become one of the biggest issues in contact sports. Only in the past decade have the consequences of repeated head knocks become better understood, and the science is still catching up. But with the discovery of CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy, in the brains of deceased footballers, it is now known that the onset of a form of dementia, caused by repeated concussions, can strike people as young as their thirties and forties.This is what happened to Michael Lipman, a former rugby international, who came out in public in 2020 as having had a diagnosis of early-onset dementia and probable CTE.In Concussion, Michael and his wife Frankie Lipman tell their story with courage and candour. For Michael, the damage was already done before he met Frankie. When they fell in love, he was a retired footballer in his mid-thirties, prone to moments of bizarre behaviour and memory loss. Since then, Michael and Frankie have become parents together, as Michaels challenges have grown. Living with Michaels degenerative brain condition is the future they face.Concussion is both an emotional personal journey and a deep insight into our understanding of CTE. Michael and Frankies message is urgent, moving and important, and a must-read for anyone involved in contact sports. Author Biography Michael Lipman was born in England and raised in Sydney. He played rugby union for Australia at under-19 level before playing for the England national team as a flanker. Michael played professionally in both England and Australia for Bristol, Bath and the Melbourne Rebels. In 2020 Michael was diagnosed with probable CTE and early-onset dementia. His goal is to change concussion protocols in contact sports.Frankie Lipman is a mother of two and supports her husband Michael in his journey. With a communications degree majoring in journalism, Frankie has worked in media and PR at News Corp and Nova Entertainment, and now is a voiceover artist, voicing many national ads youll hear on TV and radio. Together Michael and Frankie also own a paint-and-sip studio in the Hunter Valley called Pinot & Picasso.
