Brain Injury Awareness post day 18 ….. today as I reflect over the past 6 years since I was injured while working as a nurse ….I am so grateful and blessed by all the AMAZING humans I have met , learned from and those who have offered thier unwavering support ! Brain injury can happen to anyone , anytime and any place …. Never think it can’t happen to you or someone you love …. I have really found that no matter what is happening in life ….there is always something to be thankful for. You can focus on the negative and be miserable or you can turn the lemons into lemonade ….. I am educating others on my story …. A nurse , to patient , to advocate and how the plant helped me more than any pharmaceutical drug I was on. How our medical system left me feeling hopeless and without purpose… brain injury changed me ….. but the plant gave me purpose and truly saved my life. I am not here to compete with anyone ….. I am here to share the beauty of plant medicine , give someone else hope and be a better person today than I was yesterday. Please be kind to others ! Please don’t judge what you don’t understand. #traumaticbraininjury #braininjuryawareness #patientadvocacy #plantmedicine #patientstories #encourager #dontjudgewhatyoudontunderstand #nikkiandtheplant #nikkilawley
