Publisher Description

First hit, a concussion. Second hit, Second Impact Syndrome. And a life that will never be the same.

He was a 19-year-old college football player with a passion for the game of football. He played the game with the fervor of a warrior and he loved it. His body was strong and robust chiseled like some kind of Greek god. So, what was really going on in his head that fateful day in November.

Suffering from headaches from a previous concussion, Preston heads onto the field of battle with just two minutes left in the game. His eyes set on the receiver from a punt return, then BAM! De-cleated and down. He grabs his head, the pain, the pressure. What has happened?

Concussion & Consequences is a moving true story of Preston Plevretes that tells the story of his life-changing injury, uphill battles towards recovery and exposes the truth behind footballs dirty little secret, Second Impact Syndrome ("SIS").

Football is a chance, a chance unscathed, a chance scarred, or a chance to die.
