About this ebook
A traumatic brain injury, or TBI, is one of the most devastating injuries that a person can suffer from. TBIs result in a broad array of symptoms, from difficulty sleeping to memory and cognition problems. Unfortunately, it’s relatively easy to sustain a traumatic brain injury. All it takes is a blow or jolt to the head.
This book is designed as an introduction to this topic which serves to explain to you what a traumatic brain injury is, what the long-term effects are, how to cope with the injury, how family and friends can help a person with a TBI, and more. This book is a good starting place if you’re new to the subject, as I explain the basics about traumatic brain injuries before going into coping skills, and I also include a section of recommended resources where you can find further help. This is a must-read if you or a loved-one has sustained a TBI if you want to understand what has happened to you or her/him. This book also points you in the direction of other resources that give more specific information on particular topics you might want to learn more about.

Author
Christine Kruger-Remus
My name is Christine Kruger-Remus, and I'm an independent author who first began publishing a few years ago. Writing has long been a passion of mine, and now I'm sharing my work with others in the hopes of helping them. I have a Masters in Social Work, so most of my books are in the self-help genre. I'm in a helping profession, which likely is why I set out to write books to help people.I live in Colorado with my seven cats (call me the crazy cat lady!). We're an odd family perhaps, but I wouldn't know what to do without any of them. I'm employed at an agency that works with people who are low income and have severe disabilities as a case manager (plus I have three other jobs there!), so I'm a busy woman, but I always find time to spend with family, read, and of course write.
