Team Brain Injury

Confabulation is not lying. False memories due a to #braininjury can make you believe an event happened when it didn't. Here I explain the first time I realised that this was happening to me… #jumbledbrain #TBI wp.me/p7OhnE-97

@BrainInjuryVT Sending our support from the UK!

#BTAM Thank you to ⁦@BBCCasualty @KirstyLMitchell for raising awareness with Luka’s storyline & highlighting @BrainTumourOrg on the #Casualty website. #ACureCantWait bbc.co.uk/programmes/art…

@CalvertReconne1 This is the big question isn't it? it is not unusual or unheard of so, why are we not more open about it

@KrysalisNeuroOT Cutey, and wonderful companion I'm sure

Carrie met Turkey 8 months after a motorbike accident that left her  with  severe spinal injuries  and her twin sister concussed. Now, with support from Krysalis, she  and Turkey  are on a joint mission to achieve fresh goals for a new future. krysalisconsultancy.co.uk/resources/item…

Going to pretend the weather is a reflection of my mood today... happy, sunny and full of joy at meeting with the teams at @GreatOrmondSt, talking about all thing @cbituk #ABI #support #collaboration

#RT @CfgLaw: The recovery time for a #braininjury can vary from a few months to a few years, depending on the severity of the injury sustained. Watch @TrotterBrooke's video on "5 things to expect after a brain injury." #vlog #tbi bit.ly/387020h

When you have progressed from your initial #braininjury it's easy to expect too much of yourself. Here I confess how whilst I appeared to be doing well, I was terrified of failure. I was scared to try new things & it held me back...>>> #jumbledbrain #TBI wp.me/p7OhnE-d8
