Someone going through this can’t watch this much tv. As someone going through a severe TBI right now I’d know. It’d be helpful if it was broken down in pieces
God bless you and thank you
Las comment for 5 years I couldn't talk, couldn't take care of myself, my left side was paralyzed. I have memory issues. I still have a drawn up hand and my left hand and foot is numb
I spent 3 months in a comma
4 years in nursing homes
A year home with my mom
Drove my electric wheelchair to the court house and got my wright's back. Got a handicap apartment 2020. Been living alone and taking care of myself for over a year
I have had severe traumatic brain injury. 2015 I still can't walk and have issues. I did die in my comma. It was a motorcycle accident I was involved in getting hit by a vehicle a hit and run.
I have been taking bipolar meds and sustained traumatic brain injury
my life was ruined after i got it. i went from extrovert to introvert in 1 second after i got hit by a car. i stayed in the hospital for 2 weeks puking blood and the brainscan showed i had a wound on my brain and blood ontop of it. 2016 i had a new scan and there was still dried blood ontop of my brain. life with TBI is no joke its an invinsible disability and it can change your entire personality. TBI deserves alot more attention and people need to be educated on it. i lost my happiness and cant even have a basic conversation unless its a short one but i always forget most the things somebody said to me and i couldn't care less if i died in the accident TBI is a very lonely life its like a permanent psychosis i have bad thoughts running through me 24/7 and i smoke a bunch of weed to experience some euphoria that i never get from life and to keep my head calm
I also had a tmi 3 years ago.. had short term memory loss .. motor issues .. extreme pain .. with physical therapy, occupational therapy, time and “luck” I have made a almost Full recovery, i was unable to walk or move the whole left side of my body for almost 6 months , or have any short term memory. I realize this is not the same for all, and I have been very lucky. Very informative and interesting video. Thank you

Excellent presentation. All so knowledgeable, and Peter’s acceptance and attitude are inspiring.
In 1997 I had a motocross accident. I sustained a contusion and was in a coma for three weeks. I understand the recovery fully because I also am a survivor living with similar struggles. I am thankful for this you have shared here. This is very encouraging to my wife and I.

I received no therapy
I turned 36 i a coma
Its similar to living a life in prison wishing they would kill you , I pray for death
I don't remember my 2 months in a coma but from what Ive heard this sounds all to familiar – He is lucky his loved ones are still with him , mine have left me for dead
Can steams cells help a patient with brain injury.
