There IS hope and healing for us!!

I am back to work full time now for seven months after I was injured Valentine's day 2012. I am able to do my psychologist job OK, although I am still on medications and have regular check ups with my workers' comp doctor.

I still have residual memory deficits, but they seem to be fading. I find that I struggle with encoding long-term information, and really have to work hard to recall stuff that would have been easy to remember pre-PCS and TBI.

All the treatments worked - these were chiropractic, medication, neurologist, psychologist, psychiatrist, meditation, vitamins, prayer, rest, rest and more rest.

Some of it is just time to keep on resolving. You will make it!!!
