The weekend before my accident, I was a busy bee! Which is our normal with four boys.

I worked overnights on the weekends and attended school during the week. That weekend I took my embalming finals (I passed!), we celebrated our son’s 12th birthday, our boys participated in a mud run, and I took a brief rest during the day.

Before my accident, this was the last song I heard. I have loved The Killers since high school ❤️

Supporters of Moving Mountains.

Each year we have our annual Day of Positivity event (think gala) in September.

September is National Traumatic Brain Injury Awareness Month! As Founder, that is how I sustained my brain injury. The first one... That is why we have our event in September.

This year we are changing things up a little. To keep honoring TBI Awareness, we are having a Hat Bar Fundraiser led by Austin Acres!

When you purchase your spot, it is per hat - not per person! That way if you would like to bring your daughter with you, you are both able to decorate a hat together!

Mother-Daughter bonding time 😊

We will provide snacks and beverages for all! We hope to see you there and I can’t wait to see what everyone chooses for a design!

Today I spoke to my members about brain fatigue and what can contribute to it. With a TBI, or any brain injury, mental exhaustion is very real. This is why I take a brain break every single day. My Neurologist said 30 minutes; even if you don’t fall asleep. Cover your eyes.

Psalm 46:10 starts with “Be still…” For everyone walking the everyday path of life, this could mean stop worrying, stop panicking, or stop trying to control everything. Trust in God.

For those with a brain injury, the above statements go for you too - but when you brain break, fully rest in God. I will typically have the Bible read to me or my devotional playing in the background. I also use this time to pray. Not just for myself, but for those around me and for those I don’t even know.

Be still…

God’s got you.

When you see the example of Jesus, he would get away to be with his Father.

Be still… it’s so important for you and for your brain.

Well, this wasn’t what I expected to happen in my 30s… BICROS hearing aids.

In fact, if things went the way I wanted them to none of this would be happening.

But I trust in the one who created me for His plans are always better than mine. This season may be tough and seem rather daunting, but I know there’s something to be learned here. I can’t miss that.

As you can see, we are truly peer led and I’m walking beside my members to this day!

Side note: tears of joy sprang when I tried on the hearing aids. I’ve been deaf in my left ear my entire life, so the hearing aid for that ear is actually a microphone. I made my husband switch me seats so I could hear him talk. I have mild-moderate hearing loss in my right ear, after the TBI, with some crazy tinnitus (which I’ve adapted to). The sound quality was… beautiful. I could even hear my hair being placed behind my ears.

Baby steps. All a part of this lifetime adaptation.
