My Recovery and The First 19months After My AVM Rupture, and Stroke : what you mayexpect during the first year of recovery

Published by sknobs

Hey, I'm Sarah and I have a brain injury. It has officially been a decade since my family and I’s entire lives were “flipped turned upside down” but, just like in the car accident, I took the brunt of it all and I will continue to do so until the day I die. I have a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), what is commonly (or not so commonly) referred to as an “invisible disability” so, yes, I am and I always will be disabled, for the rest of my life. I do have my struggles as I will for the remainder of my days but, when I tell you that the accident was the best thing that has ever happened to me, I truly mean it. Now, that may seem odd to you, am I right? It was and it still is the best thing to ever happen to me, in my eyes. Can I tell you why? It has weeded out everyone who was “friends” with me for reasons other than the right reasons to be someone's friend, it has brought my focus back to the important things in life like my family, my overall health, and my work. Three things, well two, that I have complete control over. This is a place for me to remember and write down my thoughts. I hope you guys enjoy them! View more posts
