Upcoming Broadcasts

Guest- Survivor, Rob Baugh, joins the show tonight to talk about how he is living with and adapting to his brain injury. Rob is the host of the podcast, Life Re-Wired: the Brain Injury Podcast. Rob recently celebrated his 4-year anniversary of survival. 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! To learn more about me, please visit my blog and website.
