About Acquired Brain Injury
An Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) is an injury to the brain which results in deterioration of cognitive, physical, emotional or independent functions. It can occur as a result of trauma, hypoxia, infection, substance abuse, degenerative neurological disease, brain tumour or stroke.
An ABI can trigger varying degrees of changes in a person's ability to communicate, their behaviour, personality and their physical abilities.
In most cases, the role of caring for someone with ABI usually falls to family members, yet there is often little time to adjust to the situation and learn how to cope. Adjustment can be a difficult process for both the sufferer and their loved ones.
This Speaking From Experience DVD offers first-hand accounts from ten people living with ABI. They discuss the impact it has had on their lives and the ways they manage the condition.
"They wanted to do everything very slow and very, sort of, safe and secure, which we can appreciate. For us as parents, or for me as a father, I wanted everything to be done yesterday. I was anxious to see everything going forward." - Igal.
