About Us
My objective is to increase your
awareness that those of us with a brain
injury still have intelligence and drive to
live life to the fullest. Poetry for me is a
way to express myself. I hope that my
thoughts and feelings can help you to
identify what your journey is in life.

In reading my poetry you may find that
you have or have had the same thoughts
and feelings but could not express them.
It has been a revolution for me to find
who I am through poetry. You may find
that poetry helps with your search.

Please enjoy!

Links to other
websites we like...
Caregiver's Corner...

This section is dedicated to all parents,
families, and caregivers of children with
traumatic brain injuries(tbi's). It is
hosted by my mom, who knows a lot
about this topic, because she's lived it
since my accident in 1980. Her
experiences make her an expert, so she'll
be sharing her advice with our website
visitors.  
GRATITUDE Group...

This idea originated at the Side-By-Side
Clubhouse where I started a gratitude
group.

Here's how you can get involved. Please email
me what you are grateful for & keep it to a
couple sentences.

I'll read what everyone sends me, then post
one of them here each month.

Thanks! ...Deb

Tip on Coping with
a Brain Injury

This month we
have a chance to
be thankful to
someone and
appreciate all that
they have done.
Providing
structure for
individuals witha
brain injury is
critically important.
Mom and
Jim(dad) are
always there for
all of my
achievements.
They also do not
judge me when I
fail. I love them
both for how they
understand and
their tough love   
when necessary.
  
     
      
T-h-a-n-k-s!
Love,
Deb
