I looked into Claudia Osborn. She has a good story. The only problem with it is her injury was much more than a concussion. Her closed head TBI has a much different recovery since it starts at a much lower level of function. I find these people very helpful as an incentive to get on with life.

I meet with a group each month at our Brain Injury Support Group. Ninety percent of the group suffered coma inducing injuries. We have many symptoms that overlap but they started from a much worse condition. Many TBI patients are considered recovered or rehabilitated when they get to the level of common PCS symptoms.

It is worthwhile to read about others who have similar struggles. It helps us realize that we are not alone.

I have done Lumosity with their free trial and their other free promotions plus they have a number of simpler free exercises. I have score very high even though I have persistent memory and other cognitive problems. I have score just as high with the Posit Science set that I have.

Much of the improvement is just simple brain development, not PCS recovery. So, yes, they are both worthwhile activities. Just don't count on these systems to help you recover from your PCS. They may help you learn some work-arounds and other accommodations. These are important skills to have.

Just remember. There is a lot of therapy that is recommended because there is money to be made with the therapy. It also gives the doctor a way to say he is helping when he refers you to a Occupational or other therapist.

Just don't break your bank thinking the therapy is a cure all. It will get you out of the house and interacting with someone on a regular basis which is very worthwhile. But, at what cost.
