Thank you to whoever mentioned it and getting me to read it! (takes a little while when you can only do reading it spurts...but worth it!)

Coping with Mild Traumatic Brain Injury. A guide to living with the challenges associated with Concussion/brain injury.
By Diane Roberts Stoler and Barbara Albers Hill.
Another book that I found helpful when dealing with my daughter's concussion was: Brainlash: Maximize Your Recovery from Mild Brain Injury by Gail L. Denton PhD. I even ordered extra copies for a few of my daughter's providers that just didn't seem to "get" it.

I also liked: Over My Head: A Doctor's Own Story of Head Injury from the Inside Looking Out by Claudia Osborn
