About

Name: Chad G. (Mask 2)

Age: 42

City: Tucson, AZ

Brain Injury: FRONTAL LOBE DAMAGE

Explanation of Brain Injury:  16 ft. fall through a trucking terminal roof. Cracked my skull in various places and blood on brain.

Explanation of mask:  My mask is a general look at me. The bright yellow side represents before. Life was more clear. I knew more of myself and how I felt my life was heading. The other side is similar, but more confusing, sometimes sad or angry, or whatever emotion is triggered. I’m fighting to be my old self, but I need to accept who I am now. Happy. Sad. Confused. Forgetful. Confused again. Every day is a struggle, but I will and am persevering. It’s okay to be conflicted.
