Writing a book is something I could never have imagined. I think if it wasn’t for Meredith and The Hummingbird Project, this would have never been possible. I am trying to educate other people and let them know what it’s like to have a TBI. Some days are up and some days are down. If they are in a relationship with someone with a TBI, it is not for the faint of heart. So beware. This is my process of writing a book. I know it will be different for everyone, however, they can at least see one person’s perspective. I am just proud that I wrote an entire book and no one take that away from me. One day I am going to look back and this will be one of my biggest accomplishments. Thank you for reading my book and supporting me along this journey.

Winning the race of life. Things are going good and my investments are going well. I have a really big house waiting for me. All this is happening and I don’t have to work. I have a Kingdom to go home to. I imagine myself thinking with a pipe, winning the game. It reminds me of a picture I saw of a man smoking a pipe and he was like royalty. Thumbs up, big shout, YES!  Carrie and I, my Occupational Therapist, got into the car and drove to Walmart. I had a super long list, too long to be honest. It was not really what I thought it would be. I thought it was going to be me finding everything in the store but it was not as easy as I thought it would be. I thought I would be able to find the items by category by the aisle, but they were not really organized like that. I felt like a blind man looking for something and didn’t know where anything was, come to find out. So next time, which I have another session next week, I would like to look for just four items and go and find those. Not twenty items because when it comes down to it, I can’t find my way around. I didn’t know I would be doing so much. I mostly just bought snacks and crap like that because fruits and vegetables weren’t on my list. We were there for too long, maybe an hour and a half. The Occupational Therapist walked along next to me but did not really help me find the items, but that was the whole point for me to do this by myself. I can only hope next time I will do a whole lot better. What I think I want to do, is categorize them so I can find them more easily.
From the Newsome Melton article, Diffuse Axonal Injury it states: “About 90% of survivors with severe diffuse axonal injury remain unconscious. The 10% that regain consciousness are often severely impaired.” |
