Read the Complete Letter from the National Head Injury Foundation President and Chief Executive Officer at: http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/foia/tal238a.txt I received my TBI in 1995 at a SAM'S CLub. A Manager put a 52 pound Television set on a small book shelf and it fell off the Book Shelf and came crashing down on my head almost ending my life in a split second. It has altered my life for ever. I am one of the lucky ones who lived to tell about it.
