In the fourth part of the new segment of Starting Overdrive called Turning Points, which explores life-defining events of irreversible change, creator and host, Reg Seeton, tells the story of how his past and present collided at a major crossroads where he felt the weight of hopelessness about his future after waking up from a coma and enduring five years of recovery to get his life back.
After the night that changed his life forever (Part 1), waking up from a coma (Part 2), and his five year recovery (Part 3), Reg Seeton found himself struggling to resume life given all that he had been through in the previous six years in and out of the hospital. Reg wasn't the same person anymore. What did the future hold for him?
In Turning Points: Part 4 - My Life At A Crossroads, Reg recalls the exact moment of time back in 1991 in which his life had reached a crossroads while he stared out into the unknown horizon of the Atlantic Ocean. After years of having change forced upon him - change he couldn't control - Reg knew he had to take control of life at this one pivotal moment in time.
Also in this fourth chapter of Turning Points, Reg looks back on his childhood, the many starting over points in his life prior to his accident, his parents' relationship, how his mother and father started over, and how their crossroads related to his own profound decisions to start over after his accident.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
