My guest tonight is Randall Scott O’Brien. He is a TBI Survivor from a motor cycle accident in October of 2010. Like many of us his prognosis was grim, and he was expected to die. At one of the more challenging times, he had to be “warehoused”, just to prove that condition wasn’t warranted! With unwavering determination, he has become an incredible thriver, not just a survivor. Join us to hear his amazing story.
My guests for tonight will be Marshele Carter Waddell & Dr. Kelly Orr, PhD, ABPP…Who penned Wounded Warrior, Wounded Home, offering hope & healing for families living with PTSD & TBI. This is a very personal story, with a powerful message. One in three of our Vets are coming home with PTSD. Many of those have also suffered a TBI, which has become the signature injury of this war.

My guest tonight is Michael F Ciafone, author of Silent Cries: Living With a Traumatic Brain Injury. His second book Traveling Forward: Survivng With Traumatic Brain Injury is a brand new release. You can find these books through Lash Publishing at www.lapublishing.org

Janelle Breese Biagioni, RPC is an author, speaker, and counsellor with expertise in grief, loss, life transitions and brain injury. Janelle has significant experience with brain injury in her family and she has worked for the last decade as Editor of Headline Magazine and with The Cridge Centre for the Family Brain Injury Services providing community service.

My guest tonight is Dr. Robert Kuvent, who spent his career as an accomplished foot and ankle surgeon. He’s served in at least nine Podiatric professional affiliations, and held positions in sixteen varied service organizations. To say he was a “Type A” personality, with an exceptionally busy life is an understatement. Then things changed, when his life was turned upside down with a disconcerting diagnosis. PD, like most other disabling conditions, not only takes a toll on the patient…But their family as well.
Dr. Kuvent will be the host of a program called “Shaken Not Stirred” about PD, in our new line up of two hour programs starting in August. He will be on every other Wednesday night to help raise awareness and hope for those whose lives have been touched by Parkinson’s.
Most sources now acknowledge that PD can become a long term effect of people who have suffered previous brain trauma, like the CDC and NIH.
Fantastic Frank will be away again. This time he is out in LAS VEGAS attending a Celebrity Launch Paid event hosted by CLINT ARTHUR..
So once again he has asked the Wednesday night BTR host to fill in for him, the GREAT and BEAUTIFUL KIM JUSTUS. who will be doing something very special. She just don’t know it yet.
So be sure that you tune in to her what she has planned.
