The 38-year-old released his book, True Pain: A Real Life Story, on August 2, narrating a tale of triumph amid tribulation. Paralysed from his waist down, Robinson shot to prominence in a Gleaner video last September (https://youtu.be/quFI8xAljjg) when he told of his motivation to inspire others after surviving tragedy. He was only 16 when his life changed forever from that gun attack.
