Hello @amybrandon Nice to e-meet you here on Mayo Connect! I am so very sorry to read of your son's condition. I am Scott and I was my wife's caregiver for 14+ years while she fought her battle with brain cancer and many symptoms from her TBI as well.

I can understand your feelings of being lonely! It was the isolation of caregiving that initially brought me to Connect! It was so isolating, especially once I lost my job and as caregiving 24/7. It is a journey none of us are prepared for, but are all of a sudden thrown into. I am glad you reached out here on Connect and our caregivers discussion group. Lots of caregivers here who love to listen, question, and have big shoulders for helping to manage the burdens all us caregivers carry.

Feel free to reach out here at any time -- Connect is up and running all day everyday and I well recall my early posts were usually made in the wee hours of the morning, which was the only time I had to post!

I hope this finds you as well as can be expected and I hope all goes OK for you every day!

Strength, courage, and peace!

Hello, Amy. Thank you for posting. How are you doing tonight?

Can you talk more about your son? When did he sustain his TBI?
