I don't believe that the brain can ever be 100% the same after TBI. However, most of you will make good recoveries and move on with your lives.

I know, when you're in the throes of dealing with a myriad of symptoms, that that can be hard to believe. To illustrate my point, I'd invite you to peruse my "friends" list. The majority of the TBI ones are no longer on NT, because they got better. Yeah!

I sometimes worry that the presence of "lifers," like myself, can have a depressing and distorting effect on newcomers. In fact, after a long hiatus, I struggled with the idea of returning: I didn't want to bring others down. My injury and difficult recovery are ATYPICAL - most of you ARE going to get better. Hang on.
