Hi Sonia...yes Louise is right it is like a bank card...you put name address etc, incase of need. I always carry it in my purse too. They send them to you for free. It says on it: I AM A SURVIVOR OF A BRAIN INJURY. I may have problems with my memory, speech or actions. Your help and patience would be appreciated . I think it is a very useful thing to carry in case of emergency

Hi Lynne so pleased it was a good day and that you really got something out of the meeting and able to help others....well done you....take care, love Tina xx

Very very lucky indeed !

Hi Jo...i had to go to my local jobcentreplus, they were very helpful. Plus my GP surgery had someone that could help me with my forms etc. I found this out much later ! I also believe some others have gone to Citizens Advice and also found them very helpful. Wishing you well as i know what a worrying time it is. Lin Lin also posted some very helpful info recently, ...will try to find it for you. Take care love Tina xx Hi Jo...if you look under General Discussion/Advice & Tips/ Healthy Living/ Benefits: Thread... What benefits...started by Sally on 8th November 2010. Hope that helps xx

Hi Karen a very warm welcome to BTG ! As the others have said , it is very normal to feel anxious, i know i did in the early stages. So glad you found us, you have certainly come to the right place for support and advise. Take care and rest up lots. Tina xx
