Hi. My name is Georgia and I may suffer from TBI, or Traumatic Brain Injury. As John says ( you will meet him later ), I am NOT a doctor. I do not know how to diagnose, or treat. But I do know how it feels to have the problems associated with TBI. Do notice that I said I MAY suffer from TBI. I had an injury...and now I have problems. And I am currently going through the procedures to determine if the injury is related to the problems.

This page is dedicated to those who are suffering the same fear, doubt and anguish about the changes they are going through. It is also dedicated to the friends and families and their struggle to understand and help the ones they love. I wanted to write this as I am going through it. To let you know what may be done, what can be done. And to share my feelings...to let another in this position know that there is someone out here who does understand how you are feeling. I also want to help the family and friends know what it is like. This part of my page will be simple but as you go onward...be warned. The confusing world, as I see it now, will drive you nuts! Each page will be harder to figure out. I hope that friends and families will get a better understanding of the problems facing the patient. The most frustrating thing is trying to get those around you to understand what you are going through.

But I hope also that the one suffering, will get through this web site for several reasons. One, because it is possible that you will not be able to do it alone. One of the hardest things for us is to say..." I can't do this, will you help me?" Learn to ask for help. Do not be ashamed. You are not stupid. And...to show you are not alone. People who don't know you, do not "see" your handicap. They may be impatient with you and treat you as if you were ignorant. But those who know you really do care, even if they do not understand or they forget once in a while. And then there is those of us that really do understand every emotion, every battle you fight. I hope this website helps everyone involved. Anyone can feel free to email me, Georgia, at oglorib@AOL.com. And also anyone friends or relatives who wish to talk about dealing with the feelings they have, can email my husband, Russ at rrman43@AOL.com.

If you would, when you are finished looking at my site, please sign my guestbook and let me know what you think. Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated.

One thing before you go. Allow me a moment to say a special thanks to my friend Mike, aka Jesterdood . He was sweet enough to animate my "eyes" when I couldn't figure it out. I asked for help and my friend was there. Well, if you are still here, and not bored silly, you can enter my world by clicking here. Georgia
