Apologies

I updated my profile and I’ve read it and it comes across like I’m bragging.

I can assure you this isn’t the case.

I spent years taking the back seat and have ppl humiliate me. I was the target of ridicule as I staggered down the road.

I vowed to myself that I will have the last laugh. All those times practicing to walk and speak properly.

I’m not better than anyone else but I have been extremely lucky.

Those who have met me will know I’m an “ok” guy and I’m just trying to give some encouragement that there is a life after a TBI

I like it, it is very inspirational and wives or loved ones like myself it really gives more hope.

Doesn't sound like bragging at all to me. Sounds like you've accomplished some things and are quite rightly proud of yourself. Good for you.

My pleasure! I once sneezed and farted simultaneously and count that as an achievement. I'm not in your league :)

I don't usually read profiles (and haven't written one myself), but as you'd posted that you're worried about yours, I did read it.

I think it's great.
