Change on We Deserve Better with Dr Dorrin

There is no scheduled guest tonight, but I have arranged for several of my friends and patients to call in to discuss their experiences, from the survivor to the caregiver. Any caller will be given the floor to talk about what changes in physical status, emotional responses or psychological mindscapes may be expected with a head injury. These changes are different for everyone and as a Chiropractor, I will talk about some of the things I have heard over the last 30 years.

We all deal with head trauma within our own bodies and minds, but it isn't strictly an internal process as we have to live in the world also. Other people's perceptions and our reactions come into play, through the process of living and that cannot be avoided. People have developed many strategies for dealing with their own altered reality and these changes will continue to affect them and their world.

We have special talks by my husband Robert M. Woolery, DC who was in a severe accident as a child; and Michele, my piano instructor, who was a caregiver for her daughter, who had a head trauma at birth
