Time to Talk Traumatic Brain injury is a podcast created by survivors of brain injury. It is dedicated to traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors who are doing their best to live a healthy and productive life post injury.  In this podcast you will hear from survivors, caregivers, medical professionals, and others!

Several of the Time to Talk Traumatic Brain Injury podcasts are currently and will continue to feature interviews with doctors and physiotherapists working in the field of brain injury, as well as others in the medical field including occupational therapists, speech therapists, and other rehabilitation experts. Most importantly, the voices of actual survivors will talk about how they are dealing with living after a TBI and how it has affected their lives, their family and friends’ lives and the need for community support as a whole.

While recovery and rehabilitation are possible, most people with moderate to severe TBI face life challenges that will require them to adapt and adjust to a new reality. Time to Talk Traumatic Brain Injury podcast deals with that reality by speaking to real survivors and people that have lived with or are living with a brain injury.

Their stories are about how they are not defined by their pain or injury. They describe how they make choices to adapt to their present circumstances to create lives of value despite pain and loss. By listening to others with familiar stories, survivors using this podcast will benefit by learning about unique ways to accept reality and diminish the fear of not being able to live a quality life.

So grab a cozy warm drink, relax, and listen to Time to Talk Traumatic Brain Injury podcast. Join us in doing our best to help survivors live a more productive, quality and happy life.

I went out for a bit of a joyride on the afternoon of Sunday, April 14th, 2024. I planned to be out for an hour or two at most. Beyond that it was a pretty unremarkable day – clear and cool for spring in Vancouver.

I was heading east on Rumble Street in southwest Burnaby, when a driver heading west turned left across my path. As he did so, he hit me at roughly 50km/hr, which was fast enough to throw me into the windshield, and up over the roof of the car, landing on the pavement about ten feet behind it.

I remember the car coming to a stop diagonally, pointing away from me. I also remember everything slowing down in the split-second of the crash. As the driver took my bike out from under me and I flew into the windshield, it was like an out-of-body experience. The crunch of my body hitting glass, the thud of it collapsing on the pavement.
