Roper. Bill’s motivational-inspirational speaking stems from a near death experience in the killing fields of Vietnam. This experience allowed him to put his long held belief to the test, that he would always be able to overcome any adversity.  He suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury, and certain death seemed probable. Yet when he became aware that something terrible was wrong, he was a hemiplegic and unable to move the left half of his body.  However, he was at peace and very calm. He instinctively knew he would be whole again. He walked out of Walter Reed Army Hospital to the amazement of the doctors who had previously told him that he would probably never walk again, and certainly never be able to use his body again as before.  Within a few short years, he had rebuilt his body from that of a thin weakling to a muscular body builder, who could lift very heavy weights.  In order to eliminate a limp resulting from paralysis, he started to run.  He ran many thousands of miles, training to run efficiently.  All of this was very amazing, considering he was a hemiplegic not too many years before.  Bill believes that the same ability he used to overcome the paralysis is available to everyone. In his  own words, “The dilemma is most people believe in their human experience, or in beliefs that tell them they are less than they are.  But if you believe in yourself with earnestness and sincerity, you can achieve the seemingly impossible.”      ]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.blogtalkradio.com/braininjuryradio/2014/05/23/fantastic-frank-interviews-william-a-roper</guid><pubDate>Fri, 23 May 2014 02:00:00 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/63655233/fantastic_frank_interviews_william_a_roper.mp3" length="13994912" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>Frank Johnson</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Fantastic Frank interviews William A.

Bill believes that the same ability he used to overcome the paralysis is available to everyone. In his  own words, “The dilemma is most people believe in their human experience, or in beliefs that tell them they are less than they are.  But if you believe in yourself with earnestness and sincerity, you can achieve the seemingly impossible.”      ]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3499</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>brain injury live chat,brain injury radio netwok,brain injury support,fantastic frank</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/0b9b5c0ad234455bfcb75bc839dbd076.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Fantastic Frank interviews TBI survivor and Author Paul Ceretto</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/fantastic-frank-interviews-tbi-survivor-and-author-paul-ceretto--63655308</link><description><![CDATA[Fantastic Frank interviews Paul Ceretto.  Paul is honored to have been chosen as one the writers in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Recovering from Traumatic Brain Injuries.

A triumphant survivor of tragedy perhaps. Most importantly, he wants to be known as an individual who is concerned with home, families, and children. Mike wishes to be known as one dedicated to community, education and independence for all people. He is active in creating positive social change. The humility of Michael Segal personifies a desire to achieve success without accolades or pity.  Michael Segal inspires everyone he meets to believe that lives can be changed and goals can be accomplished though hard work and positive thinking. His noteworthy accomplishments have been featured on national television, in newspapers, and magazine articles.  Fantastic Frank, born Frank R. Johnson, is the epitome of perseverance. As a young man, he was a successful chemical engineer and entrepreneur. One day while he was at the height of enjoying success, everything changed irreversibly when he was trapped in a fire, brought out in a body bag and his life changed forever. As a result, he incurred a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). It was necessary for him to re-learn everything; including how to walk and talk. Now he is motivated to inspire millions.  Every day Frank meets his challenges, and is fueled with a passion to help others with his engaging, creative manner which is awe inspiring to everyone he meets.  Some of Fantastic Frank’s significant accomplishments consist of publishing a comic book, “The Young Explorers ©” and as a motivational speaker, he captivates and touches audiences like no other.

Only then will talking resolve anything."   At heart, Bruce is a romantic and has always been deeply fascinated with human behavior … particularly the bond that occurs between people in committed relationships.   Direct experience working with hundreds of couples each month has confirmed his belief that even the “hopeless case” relationships can be saved with a dose of loving connection, empathy and understanding.   To find out more about Bruce's work and get free instructional videos on how to stop fighting, get connected and start on the road to a new life together, visit Bruce's website, www.LoveAtFirstFight.com.        Fantastic Frank Johnson is the epitome of perseverence. 35 years ago Frank was trapped in a fire and brought out in a body bag.
