Explanation of Brain Injury:  Fell off of ladder and hit head on rock. This resulted in a slow bleed which displaced brain. Operation required to correct problem. 32 Day recovery required and 6 more weeks cognitive training.

Explanation of mask:  Depiction of self during ordeal. Green is for good part of brain. Black is for damage to brain. Tears and hearts are for love and support by wife who spent 32 days in hospital (day and night) helping me recover. Smile (red lips) are for happiness I felt on how well I recovered. Mustache and beard denote growth while in hospital. Wife liked it so well I still have it 3 years later. I credit Health South (old name) with the outstanding care and cognitive therapy they provided with my full recovery. I cannot speak highly enough of this outstanding company.
