MTBI- minor traumatic blog ignoring!


No actually friends, MTBI stands for minor traumatic brain injury.

Yep! As if life wasn't exciting enough already in my topsy-turvy autie world...

I hit myself on the head in October of 2009. What we thought was a nasty bump with some minor concussion symptoms, developed into a prolonged and pervasive display of memory-loss, balance problems, inability to read, write or type for months along with some definitely unpleasant personality and functional changes.

Now, on good days I can focus for several hours without needing to reboot. (read: "eat chocolate, stare out the window for awhile, take a refocusing walk or a nap").

On bad days like today...every other word comes out indise I mean inside out...oh this is so much fon I mean fun for a professioanla oops! professional wrtier/writer like myself to keep hitting the back button to corrrect/correct my spelling.

Anyway, I'm back again...NOT newly improved but newly humbled and appreciative of what our brains do for us. (even asperger's/autistic/neurodiverse ones).

Back soon to tell you more news of one girl's stab at an inspired life!
