Traumatic Brain Injury - my second life
this is a video about my new life after my car accident in September 2001.I was 20 years old.I can´t remember the time of the coma.I was just sleeping all the time.I was like a baby.I had pampers and artificial nutrition.It was worse for my family than for me then. I woke up gradually, it took me months and I´m still recovering.It was truly hard to find out that i was so disabled.My life has changed so much.But I´m grateful that I survived and learned a lot again.It is a long way back.i wanted to show others that it is possible to come back even after a heavy TBI.I do a lot of exercises and the GigerMd training for 5 hours every day. It is the only way I will get better. After half a year in the coma I slowly woke up and had to face a completely new situation.I was still unable to eat or drink myself, was fed through a gastro tube, could not sit and hold my head upright,I was in a wheel chair and had partly lost my memory( 2 years before the accident were gone),my short term memory was bad and has greatly improved since.my left arm and my left leg were paralyzed and I was unable to use my pc then.I was in rehab for 13 months and then returned home.I have done many therapies since that time and have got back some of my lost abilities through hard work.My life has changed completely,I lost some of my friends and I was unable to continue my studies(Japanese and journalism)my family is a great help and I am very grateful for that.

BrainLine.org Confronts Traumatic Brain Injury Crisis
Every 21 seconds someone in America sustains a traumatic brain injury. That doesn't include the more than 19 percent of military personnel returning from combat duty in Iraq who may also have sustained mild to severe brain trauma. "The numbers are staggering," said Dr. Carl Valenziano, director of trauma at St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center in Paterson, N.J. "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has identified traumatic brain injury as rising to national crisis levels," Valenziano, a surgeon with over 20 years of experience said. "While the care of TBI in our military has received a lot of media attention, there is a need to increase discussion about how to prevent brain injuries, treat brain injuries or live with brain injuries among the general public- whether you've sustained the injury yourself or are caring for a family member or friend."
