Another Fork in the Road: Ken Collins - Survivor of Brain Injury

Ken Collins was a young man in his mid-20s when brain injury became a serious part of his life. As I always say in my show, brain injury is not discriminating and can happen anywhere, anytime and to anyone. It can happen when you least expect it. It happened to Ken Collins when he was out for fun - riding a snowmobile. That unsuspecting incident changed Ken’s life forever. Listen to his story about how he made his life better. 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 blog and website.
