Crash Survivor
A powerful presentation by a crash survivor who has a brain injury as a result of a vehicle crash. The session demonstrates to students that car crashes can happen to them and that such crashes can leave permanent trauma for the survivor, their families and the community at large.
Food for thought...
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? What impact would a brain injury have on your plans for the future (career, family, sports)?
Do you think you would remain active in your current circle of friends if you suffered a brain injury?
