Default Hubby has TBI

Has your husband or yourself investigated the many aspects of TBI? If you know his commander personally and can trust she/he won't put you in the middle then that is where I would go.

Otherwise what type of doctor does he have. Is the doc forward thinking and subscribe to the philosophy that TBI has many aspects. Each aspect needs to be addressed. If the commander is out go to the doc and tell him.

The other type of doctor you are likely to encounter is the wait and it will get better type. This type is not very comforting to get stuck with. Either way it sounds like he is trying to hard.

How old is your husband? What are his symptoms? The biggest thing I struggle with is my thoughts can become disconnected and jumbled. I know this is not right but if I am not careful I will try and force my brain to do what it once did.

When that fails I go totally off the deep end with frustration. My wife has seen, felt this. It is awful to go thru this experience but I can see how hard it is on my family.

Thank you for the service of your husband and you for standing by him as he does his service.
