معلومات عن هذه الحلقة
Things are so much different now than they were in the beginning.
Today, we talk about what it was like dealing with all sides of a traumatic brain injury.
Our lives, your lives must continue. You have the physical and financial responsibilities that present themselves when one is injured and unable to continue working. It took 5 months until Dean could finally return to Firesong.
We discuss what it was like for us to step back into our full lives. What it looked like for us to survive physically and financially. What we had to do to be sure we didn’t lose everything.
We were right in the middle of building our resort, Firesong - the scene of the accident when Dean was injured.
3:45 - The only food that Dean could eat.
4:20 - How we dealt with Dean’s anxiety.
4:45 - The things Lori did not have time for.
5:40 - Dean talks about what the beginning was like for him. He speaks about how the family rallied around them, their children Ben and Brettany. They had their needs as well.
9:45 - The thing Dean did that looking back, he would not have done. He went to the doctor and was told his physical injury to the neck was not the real issue he would have to deal with moving forward. It was his concussion.
11:30 - In the beginning, Dean could only move his eyes …
12:00 - The things Dean did and why he was doing them and how the concussion impacted his Driven personality.
14:00 - The absence of info available has brought about this movement we are creating.
Our desire, when telling our story, is to bring you hope. It is possible to not only survive a brain injury physically but relationally as well.
See you next time.
Love,
Dean & Lori
