"Traumatic brain injury is a problem of epidemic proportions. Of the estimated millions who sustain traumatic brain injury, in the United States alone, only 15% receive appropriate treatment. Countless others go undiagnosed and untreated because prevailing medical opinion trivializes its aftermath. Untold numbers join the ranks of the walking wounded each year. They look normal, but their behavior is characterized by inadequate coping and survival skills, low tolerance for stimuli, and impaired mental functioning. The good news is a head injury guide by survivors, for survivors. From The Ashes is the product of two women living with the life-altering experience of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), secondary to Closed Head Injury. 'Through the agony and growth of our experience, we recognized the value of such a guide for others struggling with the devastation of TBI.'."----From the Preface.
