  1. Victoria Brain Injury Society (VBIS) - Victoria, the scene of my TBI

    Victoria Brain Injury Society (VBIS) - Victoria, the scene of my TBI

    I've taken some time off from podcasting this summer, but as the 20th anniversary of my brain injury approached I found myself wanting to do another episode! Hence episode 162 with Pam Prewett and the Victoria Brain Injury Society (VBIS), Victoria, B.C., Canada. It is where I was doing my Masters in Public Administration (MPA) when I was in a nasty bike crash that put me in a coma for two weeks and resulted in a severe brain injury - as discussed in episode 100 and in my ebook, Detour. I encourage everyone, whether you're in B.C. or not, to check out the VBIS website and, if you're around Victoria, to drop in and hear about all of the incredible services they provide for brain injury survivors and caregivers. It is very impressive! We also talked about the importance of funding for brain injury associations! The difficulty of garnering funding and resources without awareness in order to raise awareness! As brain injury is an invisible and, dare I say, silent injury, raising awareness is made that much harder! Please subscribe, rate, and review this podcast everywhere, including YouTube!

  2. IPV & Police (RNC, Royal Newfoundland Constabulary) with Cst. James Cadigan

    IPV & Police (RNC, Royal Newfoundland Constabulary) with Cst. James Cadigan

    For the final episode of Brain Injury Awareness Month in Canada, Cassandra and Miriam of the NLBIA (Newfoundland and Labrador Brain Injury Association) talk to Cst. James Cadigan of the RNC (Royal Newfoundland Constabulary) about IPV (Intimate Partner Violence), one of the most pervasive causes of traumatic brain injuries (TBI). There are many complicated reasons why TBIs caused by IPV are so often undiagnosed and unreported. Dr. Eve Valera briefly talked about some of those potential reasons on Episode 151. On this episode Cassandra and Miriam bring this important issue to light once again and show how seriously the police take IPV and know the many challenges victims may face. In fact, the RNC has an IPV Unit that can be found here. Their contact information is displayed below. For emergency situations please call 911, and for non-emergency assistance please call 709-729-8000.
