Nicki Milin Comeback Story

Nicki Milin thinks Popeye had a brain injury. The telltale signs are

the care of a certified specialist at hand?

If so it could not have been any worse than Milin’s own experience.
Milin, who is no stranger to brain bleeds, never thought she would ever
need brain surgery until she suddenly could not stop the world from
crashing down around her. Or what she refers to as her “tsunami moment.”
