A Mom's Story: The Journey
by Roni Rumsey
(Richland, WA)
On March 3, 2008 my son (13 yrs. old) was on a climbing rope in PE class at school. The rope came loose at the ceiling and he landed on the back of his head. He has brain injury to the left frontal lobe mainly.
I have been frustrated with the difficulty navigating the medical system as well as not being able to find answers to my questions, so I started my own blog. I would love for other care givers to be able to access it. The site is http://ronirumsey.blogspot.com/. Please feel free to pass this along. Another resource that I have found extremely helpful is Children with Traumatic Brain Injury: A Parents Guide. Edited by Lisa Schoenbrodt, ED.D, CCC-SLP.
Thank you for posting your story and maintaining such a comprehensive site. It has really helped to lead me towrd the next step!
