Name: Deborah M.

Age: 64

City: Phoenix, AZ

Brain Injury:  TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI)

Explanation of Brain Injury:  A girl texting ran into the car behind me at 40 mph, causing me to hit the car in front of me, resulting in 5 accidents. When I got out of the car, she showed me her license and all I could read were solid black lines. I was taken to the hospital and released as “fine.” I had severe physical and mental issues following this and was misdiagnosed until a neurologist confirmed narcolepsy due to the accident.
I was a successful glass artist and co-owner for 25 years and now my life was drastically changed. I could not drive for 7 years, had to wear diapers, and constantly lost things (keys, wallet). After this became “the norm”’ I isolated myself, not wanting to leave the house or be around other people.

Explanation of Mask:  “My Wings Were Clipped”
Now, 12 years since the accident described on my mask, I have spent so much time studying meditation and retraining my brain and many different modalities. I am starting to come out of the solid cloud that has been my brain. LOOKING BACK, THIS ACCIDENT “CLIPPED MY WINGS.”
