Synopsis

THIS JOURNEY WE TRAVELLife has its up and downs and we all experience loss at some point in our lives. This loss may be a change in life, death of someone close or relations, health circumstances, an accident, your work, expectations, or gradual looming of old age.My own journey of loss changed my direction after a serious road accident. Waking up from a six week coma, I couldn’t walk, my left side had stroke-like symptoms and my speech was greatly affected. I acquired what was considered like a foreign accent. The physical loss I experienced, I couldn’t do my work anymore, I couldn’t drive anymore, I lost my wife, I got limited time with my young boys and the loss of our house. Just about all I had gained, was taken away. All I had built up in life was lost. The life as I had known would never return and I had to relearn the basics you take for granted. With my injury affects, I had to find my alternative way. This was my Mount Everest of learning.As one door closes, another door opens.In my recovery, I broke away from societal expectations of what you could be expected to be and achieve after a head injury. I didn't follow those cultural limitations. I talked to many people who had a head injury to gain communal themes experienced after their injury. Through my own recovery story, I show there are ways of getting through experiences when you are at rock bottom and feel ultimately alone.
