Recovery from TBI, tough but there is help

After suffering a TBI, healing & sharing became his passion...
1531_ 4/15/14 - Back in 2006 Garrett Bussiere was a professional athlete. It was his first year playing pro ball with the St. Louis Cardinals and he ended up sustaining a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and that was actually the last game he played in - July of 2006. He had a head injury and that was the end of his career and a very trying time in his life. Garrett was both a professional athlete and simultaneously finishing his undergraduate degree at Berkeley. What he found after the injury when he returned to Berkeley was that he could no longer concentrate, he had difficulty with his classes and he saw a lot of his life diminish to the point where he had to join the Disabled Students Union to get some academic help to get him through. It was very difficult and Garrett said, "I just felt like there was this heavy weight placed on my shoulders that I was trying to alleviate. I had a mild traumatic brain injury that changed my life." From this point Garrett endured lingering symptoms and did what most people with this injury do - he went to specialists, you see neurologists, neuropsychologists, brain scans, he did all of it. But, "I wasn't getting good answers. I was told I needed this medication or that medication and rest." For Garrett, he just couldn't swallow the fact that at 20 years old he had to be on three different medications. He began exploring other options, things like nutritional neuroscience, exercise physiology, stress management and other options that related to enhancing cognition and expediting the rate of recovery. Garrett went on to write a book, The Concussion Healing Solution, Clarity Amid the Confusion. Today, Garrett is the Marketing & Research Manager at, CereScan Corp...
