Hiya. I am the Mother of a son who had a TBI 3 years ago, age 28.

It is a long road and very rocky but we always focus on the rainbow.

Welcome to the site which I find helps one to recognise all the symptoms and have more empathy and understanding.

Welcome. That's really sad to hear. Brain injuries are bad enough when you have experienced most of what life has to offer, but to be so young, I really feel for you guys!

Hi fantastic6, before I forget, it's a lovely photo of you and your daughter!

My boyfriend had a fall nearly eight weeks ago and sustained major head injuries. He's currently in acute rehab waiting to be transferred to more long term rehab. Still very early days but he's getting a little better each day.

Must put my story on the profile as you did!

Your journey has just begun. I hope we can support you. I only wish I had known about this sight years ago. It is so nice to be able to express things to people who understand. I found many of our friends weren't friends at all and when needed the most just walked away. Where as here we are all in the same situation.
