Sorry I'm late on stuff...

I know that I speak out a lot in class; I guess I just have a lot of questions. I know that you all don't know me, but I have what's called a TBI, or Traumatic Brain Injury. I am 100% disabled from the VA. I will never remember what we have ever talked about. I was blown up in an IED on July 21, 2007. I'm trying to go to school because I want to. Anyway, I love this class simply because Mr. Eckert likes discussion.

  1. Wow that's pretty interesting. What kind of toll has that taken on your memory? Is it short term stuff that you have problems with? Long term? Did you have full blown amnesia for any amount of time?

    Sorry if that's too invasive, but the human brain is a fascinating subject. I'd like to pick yours a bit, so to speak.

  2. That's fine Hannah. Memory... not much there. I don't remember day to day stuff unless I document it. I could go on forever... until I forget what I was talking about.
