Hi everyone. I am just starting to deal with dementia/Alzheimer's. My husband is suffering from a huge head trauma, Unfortunately it was missed ☹️ it was a horrible motorcycle accident 😣 He lost his leg above the knee. He shattered his pelvic bone and completely wrecked his hip. He is definitely is lucky to be alive 😉 but We were only together 8 months when He lost his leg. Now we have been together 8 years and he's my best friend. It's hard being the primary Care giver but I wouldn't change anything. Earl and I will make it through this. We are going to Rock this shit!!!!!!! ⚖️💯

Hi, @bdrupp - very sorry to hear about this horrible motorcycle accident your husband experienced, losing his leg above the knee, wrecking his hip and shattering his pelvic bone. Glad he made it through this traumatic accident.

Hoping members like @martha7979 @amberpep @windwalker will return and share any insights they may have, and I also wanted to be sure you met @debbraw. @lakelifelady has also been through an accident and aftereffects, and may have some thoughts to share.

You mentioned just starting to deal with dementia/Alzheimer's. Are you seeing personality changes in your husband following this accident? Is so, will you share more about what you are experiencing with him? Does he have a formal diagnosis at this point?

Hi, @bdrupp - just wanted to check in with you to see how things are going with your husband and his head trauma?

@lakelifelady - you mentioned doing brain work of your preference after TBI injury or catastrophic accident. What types of brain work have been helpful for you?

@dd1931 - how is your daughter?
