March is National Brain Injury Awareness Month.
To learn more about why Brain Injury Awareness is important to me, go here:

Monday, March 14th is "Wear Blue Day"
Blue is the designated awareness color for Brain Injury
(formerly, it was green and I kinda wish they would make up their minds!)
And...I've been thinking about doing a Q&A so if you have any questions about Brain Injury in general, or specifically about our experience, you can email me at
(Not that I'm an expert or anything...)
(On a side note: We have been sick here going on a month now. Spring cannot come soon enough for me! This has been the worst cold/flu season for us EVER! I might whine post more about that later...Today is really the first day in over 2 weeks that I have felt almost back to normal.)
Valerie,
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about the sickness. I hope you continue to get better.
I'll wear blue on Monday. Do you think the color will change again between now and then?
I think it is great that you are an advocate here! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteHope you all are feeling better soon. We have done the same thing here at our house. I am really "sick" of all the sickness.
ReplyDeleteI will wear blue!
Hey Valerie..
ReplyDeleteI'm wearing blue for you all today :)
A friend of ours has a son that suffered traumatic brain injury. She refers to life as 'before' and 'after' brain injury. I admire the strength of your family, and of hers, and I think it is wonderful that you are advocates for awareness!
I hope that Spring comes soon too!
And, I hope that you are feeling better soon!
