Thats good to hear. The only time I have felt relatively normal and active was on a boat trip in Egypt when I got in the sea and went snorkelling with my kids. I was concerned about the facemask putting pressure on my injury site but can safely say it was the most refrreshing and satisfying thing I have done. The wetsuit gavee me buoyancy so I didn't have to work too hard and it made a nice change to be able to join my kids for an activity.

TBI and PCS symptoms all came about 3 weeks after an accident at work in February 2012 when I hit my head on the corner point of a metal barrier at brisk walking pace.

Life as I knew it came to a shuddering halt that day. 20 year history of depression and anxiety now coupled with memory issues, personality change, speech and communication problems, ringing ears, impulsivity etc etc etc.

Damaged people are dangerous.....they know they can survive!
