I'm Inside, Y'Know: Traumatic Brain Injury and You

De: Tarno Greene

Narrado por: Karen Hazelwood

Traumatic brain injury and me? Don’t be silly! Really?

You know someone who is coping with a devastating loss of brain control. Often it’s obvious, maybe unsettling, but in some people it doesn’t announce itself like physical challenges do. So? You do know someone. You’re left upset, helpless, unfamiliar, confused, and may even be suffering from survivor’s guilt. It affects accident and war victims who, until recently, would have died of physical trauma.

TBI survivors as well as Alzheimer’s, dementia, senility, and PTSD sufferers exhibit behavior that is overwhelming to people trying to help.

Take a blank notebook and write the bible that will help save your sanity.

Or get techie so that the constellation of people in your survivor’s life can access and make entries online.

Meet the protagonist, Delphine, her cronies from Central Casting, health professionals en masse, dogs galore, and The Slug Queen!

Hear about:

• Confronting the “Bottomless Pit of Rage”
• Humane Society and dog stories
• The sit-down
• New normal moments to celebrate

Know how to:

• Earn trust by TBI rules and strive to trust your survivor
• Figure out what you can do to help and feel good about yourself
• Recognize and celebrate “new normals”
• Get out of your own way so you too can hear “I’m inside, y’know”

Tell the world that TBI may be invisible to you, or not, but it’s there, and patience is the best response.

Then quote the Serenity Prayer: "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference" (Reinhold Niebuhr).

It will introduce you to who’s left inside instead of what’s missing!

Wow it really seems to come from a bier of understanding

This book was a mind opening experience. I thought I knew about but there so much we need to know how to survive and ways that can make my life better with all the fractions pieces that got completed knocked out of their safe place and that I need more help before I can get back what was loss in the sexual assault in 2019 durning the prepared to make sure I was not having a stroke. I could not speak or move but I knew everything going on around me and to me. The woman in the ambulance told me and the people working on with me. I was diagnosed with DID and other stuff. When he had me knowing all this stuff that I’ve been through . The worst part out of it all I told the DeLand’s State attorney I wanted my day in court. I explained to her he was an incensed pedophile giving her enough information to help her I fully understood pedantic. She told me that Advent ( Fish Hospital) had fire him. Oh my goodness I felt a small relief until she told me they didn’t take his Ability to take care of sick people. His favorite as I could tell how excited he was getting. This is the type of pedophile that will not stop. He the type that woman’s or girls that can’t verbalize to make him stop . I was paralyzed after my stroke. Advent Fish memorial hospital didn’t want to Amit what happened just from the stroke or my mental and physical. So since 2024 I read all the medical records. They didn’t drug test or
