Often called the "Silent Injury", the victims struggle as others around them don't understand, or accuse them of using the injury as an excuse for poor behaviour. Often, they are ignored and isolated by family members, friends, co-workers, peers----as they struggle to live with their "New Normal". It's heartbreaking to accept the truth and feel that I have to constantly defend the actions and illnesses which are often thought to be "false". These injuries and symptoms are not being faked. Welcome to our REALITY.

~MY FIRST POST~

~This first post will be an introductory video which can explain some of what I will write about over the next several days, weeks, months---and possibly years. It is my desire that this blog will show you what a brain injury can look like from a variety of perspectives.

Please take a few minutes of your time to view this video and ponder what you see and hear.

Thanks for viewing, Melissa aka Caregiver
