Another Fork in the Road: Jim Proebstle Author

Jim Proebstle, author of "Unintended Impact: One Athlete's Journey From Concussions in Amateur Football to CTE Dementia," tells the story of his older brother, Dick, who didn't get the fame and fortune of some NFL Football players, but did get the repercussions as he received countless head injuries while playing high school and college football. Jim wants to raise awareness of the dangers of all head injuries.   Every TBI survivor and caregiver has encountered a fork in the road that has diverted his or her life-plan. A car accident, a fall from the roof, doing one more chin-up, or a door literally slamming one in the face are just some causes of traumatic brain injury. College plans, walking down the aisle in the perfect dress, or the coveted job quickly slip from reality as dreams turn to struggle. These unexpected life-happenings that divert one from his or her chosen path in life can be devastating. But as Yogi Berra once said, "If you come to a fork in the road, take it." Life is all about choices! To learn more about me, please visit my blogs. Surviving Traumatic Brain Injury Blog: survivingtraumaticbraininjury.com Donna's Blog: donnaodonnellfigurski.wordpress.com
