Hi

Just an update

This is proving to be a major learning curve just been given homework to watch various videos on the internet regarding Brain Injury it is really amazing how rubbish the treatment / lack of I received after my accident taking into account the seriousness of my accident ( it has turned out I was very ill at the time )

The general feeling is that i had done amazingly well to cope with all the problems linked to my TBI with the lack of support I received from the medical profession

The mindfulness homework is not very successful as I cannot relax due to Sciatica etc

Would recommend pushing your GP for referral to a cognitive therapist even at this late stage (50 yrs after the STBI )
