HELP! I Have A Brain Injury And It Feels Like I've Dropped Out of the Sky: A Survivor's Guide to Understanding and Managing Traumatic Brain Injury (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781478718079)

WHAT do you know about brain injury? How does it happen? How does it affect one's life? What does it feel like? How long does it take to recover from a Traumatic Brain Injury? Will a survivor ever be the same again?

WHAT are your beliefs about the future of someone who's sustained a Traumatic Brain Injury? The answers to these questions are as broad and unique as the individual's who have sustained brain injuries. "In my own experience as a TBI survivor, I have come to understand that the degree to which we recover can be measured not only by our physical reality, but, by our personal and caregiver's belief systems; after all, if, we are cognitively and physically able, what we believe, shapes our every outcome!" Kay Pratt.

In this Book, TBI survivors share the answers to these questions and more through the voice of their experience. It is with sincere hope that by doing so, your understanding and beliefs about brain-injured individuals will be broadened and your perspectives enlightened.
