Average Rating: 
Rating: - For families and friends of brain trauma patients
This book is a must have for patients and families of brain trauma. It clearly states symptoms and stages of the trauma. It tells you what to expect. It isn't a medical description but a patient to patient description in terms that anyone can comprehend. It is one excellent book. Thank you Gail Denton for writing this book.
Rating: - Recovery begins with understanding
This book is a guide to sanity for those who have experienced mild brain injury, as I have. In the fall of 2000, I suffered an accidental fall and spent the following 15 months in a struggle to recover my 'real self". With the aid of this book, I am now fully functional again and able to cope with the minor relapses. I strongly recommend this book to those who suffer, their friends and caregivers.

"Between the medical professions ( untrained to recognize it), the insurance community ( unwilling to ... Read More
Rating: - First aid for survivors
When my daughter suffered a severe concussion in a car accident on Father's Day, June 18, 2000, I was desperate for information about what to expect, what to hope for, and what to accept about her condition. I surfed the internet and chatrooms looking for information, and many "survivors" of mild brain trauma and their family members unanimously recommended this book. I bought it, and found in it an invaluable comfort and resource. It has been a difficult month, but it looks like my ... Read More
