In June of 2000, Heather was driving home from her job as an ICU nurse. She lived across a set of train tracks that didn&#8217;t have any railway crossing guards or signals. She&#8217;ll never know the exact details, but her vehicle was hit by a train. She endured a severe traumatic brain injury, broke her C-3 vertebrae, and ruptured her spleen, but by some grace, she survived. She had to relearn how to walk, talk, and eat, which was a humbling challenge.
“I have come so far and accomplished so much. The support from my friends and family has been invaluable!” &#8211; Heather, longtime PPC participant
Brain injury survivors must fight through unimaginable mental and physical challenges of their invisible disability. There isn’t a cure for brain injuries; they don’t grow back like hair or fade like scars. Dealing with the effects is a lifelong, day-in-day-out process. While no two brain injuries are the same, they do have a few things in common. They don’t fade or mend, they are always present, requiring brain injury survivors to navigate in a brand-new world as they fight to establish a new normal.
I’m excited to share my commitment to participate in the 2020 Pikes Peak Challenge Virtual Challenge. Although I&#8217;m not able to be in attendance on the day of the event, I would like to lend a hand of support and take on a hike of my own.
Funding is critical for BIAC to continue supporting survivors in our state, which is why I am reaching out to family and friends to share my exciting commitment to participate in the 2020 Pikes Peak Challenge Virtual Challenge. Although I&#8217;m not able to be in attendance on the day of the event, I would like to lend a hand of support and take on a hike or walk of my own.
Last year $185,000 was raised to support the <a href="https://biacolorado.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Brain Injury Alliance of Colorado</a>! This year we hope to surpass that number. Can you help us reach our goal?
Please donate now on my <a href="81}">fundraising page</a> and together we can make a huge impact for brain injury survivors and the entire brain injury community.
