Through The Darkness TBI & Music conversation w/ Cristina Scabbia w/ #lacunacoil #tbisurvivor

Through the Darkness a Traumatic Brain Injury Journey through music & perspectives. A conversation with Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil about Traumatic Brain Injury, music, and perspectives through Healing. I am grateful that I had this opportunity to thank artist, Cristina Scabbia & Lacuna Coil, who has helped me through some of the darkest times. I was in a single vehicle motorcycle crash on March 15, 2016, suffered a separated pelvic circle, a crushed left orbital, and right side brain bleed/Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). I was never in a coma but was not cognizant. What I do have memories of was my music. My wife would play my Pandora Station, and during pain spikes the music of Lacuna Coil was there. I was able to help focus through pain and anxiety while listening to music. Through that, I learned how to “Trip the Darkness” and control my experience. Currently, I am a Peer Mentor at INOVA Mt. Vernon Rehabilitation Hospital, and a Peer Support Volunteer at Trauma Survivors Network with INOVA Fairfax. I have made many friends that could never have happened without this trauma. I gained a true “Gift of Perspective”. Cristina was gracious enough to speak with Andrew, a ruptured Brain Aneurysm survivor, and me, to learn a little about TBI, trauma, and more importantly how art, creativity, and music can help us through some of the most difficult times.
