We are now the Central Florida Brain Injury Support Group formally the Orlando Brain Injury Support (O-BIS) Est. 1988
www.brainsupportgroup.org The Central Florida Brain Injury Support Group has been the brain injury awareness outlet since 1988 with recreational activities for Brain Injury survivors, family and advocates with community speakers and resources.
Our Mission is to help Build Brain Injury Awareness through knowledge and partnership. Together we can each build a strong link in the chain of Brain Injury recovery through friendship and support. We are just one of the wheels on the vehicle to the a successful brain injury recovery.
It is important to help build "Brain Injury Awareness" for the 210,000 people that live with a brain injury who call Florida home. Which in Orange County there are over 12,000. This includes children and the veterans with brain injury who face a lifetime living in the Brain Injury world.
The Main Purpose of the Central Florida Brain Injury Support Group is to provide a safe environment where Brain Injury survivors share their individual needs, compensation strategies, and establish friendships by meeting others who face similar challenges.

Help Build Brain Injury Awareness through knowledge and partnership
In these hard economic times when services are being cut. We need to extend a helping hand to our fellow man. Together we can be strong for each other and share in the faith that we have what we need now and the Lord will provide any other needs when the time presents itself. With the attitude of giving, loving, and sharing with one another indeed we will succeed.
We at the Central Florida Brain Injury Support Group promote brain injury survivors to be proactive in their recovery. We provide resources to choose from in hopes of a successful positive productive result for our community. We would like to reflect the benefits that we as brain injury survivors have to offer our society. Concentrating on what we “can do” which strengthens the link in the chain of brain injury recovery. Together our voices echo forward with love in peace for all. Amen. Thank you everyone for your all of your contributions.
Compassion is the Attitude for 2010

I too am a TBIS of 18 years sustained as a passenger in a head on collision. I do not recall the accident a month before and after and the way I recall "that person" is like of a character I once read about. It does not seem like it was me that all that happen too.
The reason why I share this with you is because it doesn't really matter that much about what you remember what happen or what you have to do. The most important thing is to remember ia to enjoy the moment you are in. The smile on your face shows the joy in your heart. Have faith with grace and hold hope next to the joy in your heart and kindness will follow you with love.
