New-child with TBI   Message List

Hi, I came here looking for some help for my son. My son is 9 years old and
suffered a traumatic brain injury to both of his frontal lobes as a baby. He
has ADD, bipolar, a language learning disability, axiety disorder, short term
memory problems and chews his hands. He struggles in school but is still
learning and is in a regular classroom for all but 2 hours a day.

My son is a delightful child much of the time and responds well to medication
but he can also be incredibly frustrating and have horrible mood swings. He has
no impulse control and does things without thinking, including driving his
siblings nuts. It is a daily blessing and challenge being his mother.

I was hoping someone could help me with any possible treatments or ideas with
how to help my son reach his full potential. His neurologist had nothing to
offer me besides medication and special education.

I would love to talk with anyone with experience with frontal lobe TBI.

Thanks!

Kelly
