[QUOTE="Star*, post: 149102, member: 4964"] HOC, I work with a young man who has Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). He flipped a truck with his 3 children in it - hit a tree (all children okay - fine) he split his skull open and nearly died. They litereally had to put his brains next to him on the ride to the hospital. He was in a coma for 4 months. He had to learn how to walk and talk again - he said it was very difficult. His wife left him. He's 34 now. And they had him recently in a psychiatric hospital as he tends to self medicate with alcolhol and drugs to stop the pain. While in the psychiatric hospital they got him all clean and on a good diet, and put him on high doses of Lithium and something else. He was a raging, screaming lunatic type guy - and if you didn't know he had the accident you would just say he was a jerk. He lost his home, all his friends - and now is working 4 days a week and doing well. My son too had a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) when he was 3 years old and no one is certain if that has contributed to his behaviors or not. We've had 3 MRI's over the years and he suffers from headaches almost every day. I think - if those 2 can be helped - so can your sister. You are in my prayers, and I'll shake a liver or 2 in my dance by the moon light tonight. - Neighbors should be warned - must go - GOod Luck & Hugs Star [/QUOTE]
