Brain Jolt: A Life Renewed After Traumatic Brain Injury, Second Edition with Homeopathic Appendix by RN, DHM, JoAnn Jarvis
(This second edition includes a homeopathic appendix for use by the homeopath for clients with brain injuries and/or post traumatic stress disorder. Foreword written by Maria Bohle, CCH, RSHom (NA), CEO, The British Institute of Homeopathy.) My stable, normal life was changed suddenly when I sustained a "minor" motor vehicle accident. A serious neck injury, a traumatic brain injury and post traumatic stress disorder threw me into an alternate state of reality. The Workers Comp system, a physician unable to recognize or diagnose my injuries, and my employer's insurance carrier who automatically assumes fraud are my antagonists and further devastate me. My life and my family life will never be the same. Despite all this, I overcame, healed and went back to working in my profession (RN) with the help of alternative medicine, homeopathy, a Native American Indian Healer and Spirit. My story is written to encourage, educate and to give hope to patients as well as their care-givers.
