Traumatic Brain Injury

Arnold Fisher is a New Yorker who has raised money to enable the opening of a Defense Department research facility in Bethesda, Maryland to "remove the profound veil" surrounding traumatic brain injuries and other afflictions suffered by many who served In the Iraqi war. Nobody from Congress or the White House attended the opening ceremonies yesterday. Fisher asked, "Where are they?"

I know a gentleman here in Colorado who suffers from traumatic brain injury as a result of his military service. He was incorrectly diagnosed as bi-polar, and is fighting in federal court to correct the misdiagnosis. Please wish him well. He is representing himself.

This event was covered on television by the Rachel Maddow show, apparently the only news show that cared... ironic, isn't it?
