Episode 18. Finding Meaning and Hope After Brain Injury. 1st discussion with Dawn

from Experiencing My Brain · host Daniel Avesar PhD

In this discussion I speak with Dawn for the first time. Dawn and her 15 year old daughter had brain injuries in the same automobile accident. Her account is both heartbreaking and inspiring as her and her family have faced many challenges and continue to live, love, and work to manage the unique problems that come with two brain injuries. She has found purpose and meaning in helping others with brain injury by promoting awareness of the difficult and personal aspects of this condition. Dawn has a blog about brain injury and has written an amazing book: A Miracle a Day, One Day at a Time: Hope After Traumatic Brain Injury. Her and her daughter continue speaking to young people to raise awareness to help prevent brain injury from happening, and to help brain injury survivors, their families, friends, and caregivers know that they are not alone.Please visit the links below to see her work:https://dawncorbelli.com/https://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Day-One-Time-Traumatic/dp/1098386396/ref=sr_1_2?crid=28FY7N31XZL1C&keywords=dawn+corbelli&qid=1659909500&sprefix=dawn+corbel,aps,408&sr=8-2- - -Experiencing My Brain is a podcast devoted to detailed discussion with brain injury survivors about their experiences, problems, and ways that they have found to navigate their lives. These stories are important to help the non brain injured world make sense of the problems that come with brain injury.
