Mental health providers, it's important to ask about brain injury in your clients. Ask using multiple terms for brain injury, TBI, hypoxia, stroke, concussion, being concussed, hitting your head, belly rung, etc #brainstormforbraininjury #braininjury #mentalhealth

When considering the advice of a medical professional when it comes to something outside of their expertise, specialization matters. #brainstormforbraininjury #braininjury #braininjuryawareness #invisibledisability #expertanswers

Parenting is hard. Just because someone is in a respected profession & seen as an authority in some way does not mean they can give good advice on everything #brainstormforbraininjury #braininjury #braininjuryawareness #braininjurylife #parenting

A diagnosis of brain injury doesn't mean a set outcome. Hope pushes you to try more. Hope needs to be carefully managed & it won't solve everything but it helps reach for something better #brainstormforbraininjury #braininjury #braininjuryawareness #hope
