When it first did I did. know I'm self medicating, slowly regaining my Balance and have learned how to walk again. What's most annoying & irritating thing to me, is that I an get the most intelligent/competent, helpful advice from the Internet.

It's odd that Radio, TV, News Papers are SILENT about this being BIA Awareness Month.

It seems even more ODD that as a 5 year TBI Survivor, even with all the Medical Exams, Consultations, Therapeutic sessions I've had and continue to have, that BIA Awareness Month was never mentioned. I only learned of BIA Awareness Month wandering the Internet, in January of this year.

The question I ask myself, and now you, why is not BIA Awareness Month not an item front and center the way that the March of Dimes, or Polio prevention was, that Breast Cancer is, that preventing DRUNK driving was and is, that the Vietnam War War and the Draft was?

Add this to your anger...An estimated 1.7 million people sustain a TBI annually. Of them: 52,000 die, 275,000 are hospitalized, and. 1.365 million, nearly 80%, are just treated and released from an emergency department.
