glad to see more activity also sorry for the reason ya' all are here--
personally struggling or watching loved one suffer. Hard to feel hopeful
when at the affect, & outcome is so questionable , as is sequelae.

Yes it would be good to hear from others who are doing well
I've been reading the scattered Posts & responses here.
Thanks to all for the support.

I composed a detailed Post earlier -a major accomplishment-then Lost
now can't recall what .....

reply to question: what's My Story...
I've had several concussions; wonder about repetitive head trauma.
I've just not felt "right" since last injury 6 mths. ago struck in head by hydraulic lift on wheelchair van. knocked down & out for several minutes. strange accident happened at hospital (had taken my father to ER)
... under circumstances, I chose not to seek treatmt then. didn't think I needed stitches for laceration; big lump & headache, w/ nausea after.
two days later woke w/ excruciating headache, blurred vision, vomiting,
and more . went to ER, tests showed no brain bleed. Injection helped headache & pain, but returned & has remained w/ nausea, photophobia,
& other sensitivities esp to sound/noise, smells.
I couldn't sleep at nite, exacerbated the fatigue & weakness. and
"emotions" -irritable, anxious, depressed, confused... felt I'd lost myself.
cognitive dysfunctions --memory, thinking, and doing , etc...
began to sleep at nite, w/ meds, but wake often; feel tired & sleepy and
retreat to bedroom often to rest but also feelings of overwhelm. Hard to be around people & stimulation . so much more that is hard, to describe and contend with. For me the biggest challenge is maintaining as primary Caregiver for my terminally ill father. I live w/ him, struggling to tend to his needs but not able to keep up w/ other responsibilities in home. Do have aide 9 hrs week , but ..... don't know what's going to happen.

Pray for best outcome, for all.....
