aunt kathleen, you are not alone. I just spoke with a doctor that had to give up his career because of a TBI from a car crash. It's a double edged sword talking to him. It's comforting to not be alone, but when he tells his story it's like he is talking about me. I am hearing my issues. That is hard to face. It is hard to understand why were are sitting the bench. He's a doctor, I'm a teacher...we were serving the public. We still have so much to give.
