Maryam D Abo Documentary

Guys I have just seen a documentary called 'Rupture, living with my broken brain' It is the story of the actress Maryam D Abo and what happened during and after her brain injury . It is the most fantastic documentary I have seen in twenty years since my TBI and comes closest to explaining what it is like.

You may be able to get this on the BBC Iplayer otherwise it was on BBC4 over here. Cant recommend watching this enough.

Regards to all, stay well.

" Hi amst, Thank you for the info. I have been trying to find it but it looks like Iplayer won't play in the US, so I hope PBS picks it up so others can see it. I am new to computers because after BI, I could not do a simple google search w/o severe eye/brain fatigue....so I am behind on technology, but I am using a small tablet now...yea!! progress slowly...very slowly :-) If anyone knows how to get BBC4, please share. Thank you bunches!! "

" No problem guys I saw it on the BBC this side of the pond and it touched a nerve. I have never in the 20 years since my TBI seen anyone come this close to describing my experience and I guess it takes a fellow sufferer to do that.

Glad others have found links for you I have been searching and failed miserably !

Regards to you all from an unusually sunny UK (it will never last for the Olympics !!) "
