My eldest child is a 37 year old mother of two. On December 7, 2010 she was hurt in a karate class. She suffered a closed head Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). For three months she could not tolerate light or sound. She was unable to stand up without getting dizzy and had word retrival problems and migraine headaches constantly. She improved a bit and the vertigo went away and she could take the sunglasses off. She had been progressing but still has migraine headaches daily cannot read, cannot listen to music and has great dificulty in noisy places. I have spent alot of time helping her with the kids doing shopping and alike.
She managed to start driving the kids to their activities a few weeks ago. Only short distances at first and then longer ones with many rest stops. She tries to do as much as she can but life in general is overwhelming for her.
As if things weren't difficult enough for her, sister in law now wants a divorce so he can pursue relations with other women. The savings accounts are empty and we do not know if it is ligit or if he took the money and hid it. The lawyer told her the house must be sold because she still cannot work and there isn't enough money for her husband to get a place of his own and keep the house. I offered her to live here with us but it means the kids will be moved from their friends, schools and activities. They are 8 and 12. She decided to stay in the house with sister in law untill the place is sold wich could be a long time in this market.
All this stress has set her way back in her recovery from this injury. She is on many different kinds of medicines which are reaking havoc with her body. Steroids had packed on alot of weight and her self esteem is in the gutter due to sister in law. Your prayers and good thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you -RM
