hi all

yes had all these sort of comments the one that really got me is the official from the sick people work for benefit scheme ,saying to me I will contact you in a couple of weeks when you are feeling better , this guy knows I have 40 freaking screws in my head the gov doc says I am to damaged to work I am awaiting NS to fix a CSF leak and feel like I am standing on the deck of a boat the tinnitus is driving me slowly out of what mind ,I have left but the hardest thing is, I cant cope with simple things that upsets me, I hate what this has done to my family , but I an,t giving up, there are my kids to think about , PEOPLE can,t know how much someone with a TBI want,s to get better or the dread we feel when our mind go,s blank

Yes, and... everybody knows how you are feeling and what is good for you. right?
Another comment that I get is that ,"what would you do if you were in my place?," other people always have it worse than you.
Anyhow we cannot possibly compare each others pain as we our threshold of pain is not all the same and we are affected by it differently.

Somethings we need a hit in head to realize what is really important.
I wish you guys a happy thanksgiving.
