Welcome Matthew. Just read the newspaper report of your attack ; sounds horrific ! Hope you're surrounded by good people now and coping with the results of your injuries.

Take care, Cat x

Bless you I just read it too. I hope you can move on with your life. I hope you feel that justice has finally been done and that maybe you needed that to happen to look at the next chapter of your life. Are you and your girlfriend still together? X

That’s a big thing over with 🙌🏻 it’s like anyone that doesn’t have a BI they will never understand completely 👌 but that’s not going to stop me now that that’s out of the way & it’s talking to other people with a BI or has a good enough idea that’s going to help to , this is the next stage 👏🏻 I was isolated for ages due to everything 😅 but all is going well so far 😀 me & her split up tho we’ve a son 😎 we Jensen mini me 😄😄😄😄😄 I really hope all is going well for you! May you be richly blessed 🙏🏻

If there is a BI group near you it could be worth joining just to meet others who have had BI. I go to one that has been set up by someone who was hit causing a BI 6 year ago not as bad attack as yours as this was just one hit but the person got a pathetic sentence as it was not planned or carried on. Through me going to this BI group I now do some running helped by the man who set the group up and have signed up to a 10k on Easter Sunday which I have never done before will be a good day as it’s the 6 year anniversary since the man got BI and he started this 10k so the day doesn’t have bad memories for him. I’ve got a bit to prove to show him I can manage 10k but he has helped and is going to go for run with me a few times before the 10k.

Hello,

Welcome . I have to admit my situation is totally different to yours, but the resilience and determination to keep going is the same.I ended up with brain damage 29 years ago, but I keep living life as best I can and try to remember smiling is painless and laughter is free. Chin up and take care.

I had my brain injury in 1998. Still improving everyday. I have only just accepted this is a new me, get on with life. Unfortunately my husband has just asked for a divorce as he cannot cope with my moods any more. This has made me accept things . May be too late so do not let it happen to you. Well done for understanding you are and fighting.

Not what you're looking for?
