Today I can't stop thinking about our young men and women in our forces who are returning from combat with closed brain injuries and being labelled with PTSD. The term PTSD can be used to simplify a condition or so that people understand there are soldiers who are suffering and looking for answers. We must start to talk about the brain and brain injuries. People must be more open to discussion about brain injuries so that the road to recovery can be easier for the brain injured and their caregivers.
My mission is to educate people and provide a forum where people can feel comfortable talking about their brain injury and know that anything they share is something I have already experienced.
If you know of somebody who has served our country please ask them the write on my blog, visit my facebook page and read the information on my website.

I know that we need to start the conversation and see how the conversation can aide in recovery.
