Name: Tommy L.

City: Queen Creek, AZ

Brain Injury: TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI) I was in a car accident on the freeway going 70-75 miles per hour and  was T-boned on the drivers side.

Explanation of mask: My brain is “BLUE” of CONFUSION that has created many different feeling and emotions that I am not familiar with such as being SCARED IN PUBLIC, ANXIETY, or times when I CAN’T GET OUT OF THE CAR.  The confusion brings your brain to create LIES and ANGER that you need to overcome. With appreciation for those that have tried to understand with kind words and actions as this brought HOPE and POSITIVITY that I remember once having and bringing so  many smiles to others from the hugs they are giving me.  Through this “growth” from the darkness has emerged a “NEW ME” that I am now trying to know and share with you so that you can BE AWARE AND ALIVE! Much love to you all, Tommy.
