City: Raleigh

Brain Injury: Frontal, temporal, and occipital lobe damaged.  Major impact was on the left side of my skull. 

Explanation of Mask: How I felt and currently feel about what happened to me.  Qualities that are gone; vision in left eye, sense of smell, use of the left side of my face, and whole left side of my body.  My face feels deformed, like I don’t look “right”, from smiling, talking, eating, and facial expressions.  My mind is always racing; so busy thinking, but just as quick forgetting it all.  I can no longer fully protect my wife and children.  There is now a “new” relationship with them.
