I posted an article on fb "how best to interact with someone with tbi" and I think it's good reading! He explains why you shouldn't try and finish sentences for survivors! You've gutta understand everything in our brains got disconnected and part of how we make the connections again is by doing or completing our sentences, thoughts ourselves! It takes work for us to take a thought and carry it to verbalize that thought as it was in our brain! I've not only got to try and verbalize the thought as it was in my head, I've gutta concentrate on how I'm gonna formulate my words! I took all this stuff for granted pre tbi! I'm not gonna take anything in life for granted anymore!
I'm a 54 year old man and a survivor of a traumatic brain injury which caused a 3.5 month coma!I beat prostate cancer too :)!
