After 10 years of "being your own advocate," today I had my first day of acquired Brain Injury (ABI) rehabilitation for Repetitive electrical injury (450 volts/900 milliamps/504 millicoulombs). I had occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech language therapy--back to back, plus 4 hrs travel round trip. As completely exhausting as it was, I am so very grateful. 

Came home and collapsed in bed for hours in complete sensory deprivavation. Slept like a log... and now ready to go back to sleep. Tonight it's sheer exhaustion and I'm in happy tears!

Every ECT patient deserves automatic comprehensive ABI assessment. Let's make it available for everyone by signing this petition and sharing it with everyone.
