Default Wow...what a story

Just watched this video of a man who has complete amnesia of his entire life after hitting his head. But it is truly inspirational. I guess when we are having down on our luck moments, we can feel fortunate our deficits arent this bad!

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.

I saw this video on yahoo this morning. Such an amazing story. I cant imagine going through something as scary as that, but look how well he is doing! He and his wife were very positive and looked to still be very much in love after everything they have gone through. This gives me hope. If they can overcome something so much more terrifying and life changing, then I can get over these stupid headaches.
