Caren's Journey & Hope TBI on Recovery Now with Kim Justus

On January 4, 2014 Caren Robinson was involved in a catastrophic head on collision with her youngest son. Caren’s seatbelt failed and she was ejected approximately 10-15 feet from the vehicle and sustained an initial loss of consciousness for an unknown amount of time before EMS arrived. Caren suffered a complex high energy blunt polytrauma with multiple injuries. Some of those injuries included multiple orthopedic fractures, closed traumatic brain injury, and soft tissue injuries, along with other medical challenges.  Sharing what she learns through her recovery journey, self-led research, self-advocacy, and survival experiences have become her way of coping and healing on the inside, while her body healed on the outside.  Caren created Web Site and Blog to help take the struggle out of finding resources and information when someone is faced with a Trauma - from a Polytrauma or Brain Injury. www.hopetbi.com This show is a gathering place for anyone seeking recovery from the challenges of life on life's terms.
