My daughter was 14 in Feb 2006 when she sustained three concussions within 3 weeks. Her two year anniversary is coming up next week. Still not 100%, but much improved with acupuncture, medication (Effexor), and now osteopathic manipulation and homeopathy. She's at the point where I don't worry about her living a normal life, with some necessary lifestyle modifications. (A lot of sleep, extra time for tests, taking earplugs everywhere to avoid loud noise, for example.) And who knows? Maybe these will pass, as well.

Maybe it was just a matter of time. But I couldn't just sit by and wait -- needed to be proactive and feel like we were doing something.

Anyway, my point is that recovery is different for everyone. Research different treatment modalities, see what feel right and follow your gut. Don't give up and don't give in.

God bless you all.
