June is Brain Injury Awareness Month in Canada. The Ontario Brain Injury Association (@ontariobia) shares:
“Brain injury happens in an instant. It does not discriminate, nor does it only impact one person. Brain injury changes the lives of people of all ages, genders and ethnicities, leaving little time to adapt. This disability lasts a lifetime and often leaves many with feelings of grief, loneliness, anxiety, depression, and an inability to cope.”
