Add to basket"They say laughter is the best medicine. Clearly, they've never tried the NHS hospital tea, but I'm here to tell the tale anyway."
This isn't your typical "misery memoir." While I've walked through the dark fog of depression and faced a life-changing transplant journey, I did it with a cup of tea in one hand and a healthy dose of Derry humour in the other.
In this book, I'm pulling back the curtain on The Real Life of Brian. From being nicknamed "Soupy" to navigating the "Great NHS Food Wars," this is an honest, raw, and-believe it or not-funny account of what happens when life throws you a curveball and you decide to swing back.
This expanded second edition includes brand-new chapters, from the surreal hunt for 'Prime' energy drinks in London to the literal highs and lows of hospital life-including a stand-up comedy dream and a nightmare encounter with raw sewage.
What you'll find inside:
• The Unfiltered Truth: My battle with depression and the road to recovery.
• Hospital Hijinks: Why my auditing brain nearly exploded in A&E and how I survived the "Two-Year Sentence."
• Small Wins: The power of a "Pocket List" and finding joy in a simple garden pond.
• Derry Wit: Real stories from a man who's been told he "shouldn't be a writer" but decided to do it anyway.
Praise for The Real Life of Brian:

"Even during the hardest times wit and humour is present. A brilliant account of how the support and love of family can help you through anything." - Saralyn
