Another Fork in the Road - Panel: Finding Purpose After Brain Injury

As many of us know, life changes drastically after a brain injury. Survivors are rarely able to return completely to the lives they once knew. Loss of abilities, jobs, and friends are just some of the calamities of brain injury.

So what do survivors do now? Join me and my panel of survivors, Lisa Dryer and Cam Compton to see how they have approached their lives after brain injury.

Every TBI survivor and caregiver has encountered a fork in the road that has diverted his or her life-plan. A car accident, a fall from the roof, doing one more chin-up, or a door literally slamming one in the face are just some causes of traumatic brain injury. College plans, walking down the aisle in the perfect dress, or the coveted job quickly slip from reality as dreams turn to struggle. These unexpected life-happenings that divert one from his or her chosen path in life can be devastating. But as Yogi Berra once said, "If you come to a fork in the road, take it." Life is all about choices!
