    Sgt. Thomas Cody Bates ~ The Importance Of His Pledge For Brain Donation

    Tish connects with Sgt. Cody Bates, US Army Veteran to talk about his motivation to serve, three deployments and the importance of brain donation. While deployed, Cody sustained numerous injuries due to IEDs and mortar rounds which resulted in TBIs. The repercussions of head trauma can lead to multiple symptoms and challenging health issues such as depression, damage to the pituitary gland, neurological disorders and more. These health issues make it even more important to pre-register for brain donation to help others who may be struggling with head trauma symptoms and disorders.
