Brain Injury, Trauma, and Grief is the self-help book people with brain injury have been waiting for.

"While many focus exclusively on the practical and clinical side of [recovery from brain injuries]...Jeejeebhoy addresses the more nuanced, abstract, and intimate side of healing, for a comprehensive, compassionate, and truly holistic guide. The need to grieve one's previous life after suffering a traumatic brain injury, for example, is often relegated to the realm of psychiatrists or therapists, but the real-time philosophical implications of such a process are critical." Self-Publishing Review

Shireen Anne Jeejeebhoy draws on her experience seeking treatments that heal neurons and post-traumatic stress disorder. She's researched a road map for people looking to recover from brain injury and the subsequent trauma and brain injury grief. Brain injury grief is barely addressed by health care professionals, but having personally experienced it and having to develop her own therapeutic process to heal, Shireen provides step-by-step Action Plans to start the healing.

Healing from a brain injury often focuses on strategies and rest, but what no one addresses is the other injuries -- the emotional trauma that accompanies the aftermath of living with a brain injury -- and the effect of not healing the neurons.

Loneliness persists even when surrounded by people. One traumatic event or a series changes an expected future. Family and friends experience the initial trauma as well, but how they experience it can lead to modifying their behavior around their injured loved one, consciously or subconsciously pulling away, or not having the tools or wherewithal to help them cope through the isolation and deep feelings of loss.

Shireen understands what people are really looking for is recovery that's true recovery. Brain Injury, Trauma, and Grief offers hope, inspiration, and actionable tools to help people with brain injury cope with the emotional strain of brain injury, heal their grief and treat their neurons, and discover forgiveness, healing, and light in the darkness.

With this brilliant and compassionate map -- a complement to Shireen's memoir Concussion Is Brain Injury: Treating the Neurons and Me and the related website concussionisbraininjury.com -- the reader will be able to step onto the road to reclaiming their life and healing emotionally.
