Recovery Now with Kim Justus...Mental Floss

Last week we heard from the father, Ian McCallum who wrote From Cradle to Grave and Back, a book for professionals and caregivers. This week we will hear from his son, Andrew McCallum. Andrew McCallum experienced a traumatic brain injury in April of 2008 when he was 32, which resulted in a variety of physical injuries and including a craniotomy.  He was able to return to work 2 years later but went back on Long Term Disability 2 years later as the effects still seemed to be perceived as having an impact on his work.Andrew has had an interesting journey of his own. Check out his website at www.mentalfloss.ca  & join us for some cool surprises! This show is a gathering placefor anyone seeking recoveryfrom the challenges of life on life's terms. I introduce topics, and survivor's share their experience, strength and hope. We discuss useful tools that have helped us lighten the load, of our journey through recovery. More will be revealed! Tune in, stop in and call in. This is a "we" recovery program, because it is in the "we," that we find the new "me." We focus on the four A's of Recovery...Awareness, Acceptance, Action and Adaptation. This is a place for survivor's striving to become thrivers.  :) Some nights we will have a featured guest, and others we will introduce a topic of recovery, encouraging callers to join us in the discussion. Host is Kim Justus, author of In a Flash: Miracles Hereand Beyond found at www.inaflash.org
