I think a lot of people can more easily understand how profound a severe traumatic brain injury can be, but I personally think that more needs to be said and done about mild traumatic brain injury.

I'm just starting a new book, called Brainlash, that is written by a PHD who had to recover from a mTBI and she agrees.

She wrote that she is classified in the "higher functioning, minimal loss" category of brain injury and that it discounts her loss. And that her loss is HUGE to her, but that to the medical field, it's not so much.

I think many of us can relate to that.
