Adam's Story - Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)/Gunshot Survivor

Welcome back to another episode of the You're Not Alone Podcast! This week Morgan and Val are joined by Adam Pepiton, and his mother, Tara. Adam shares his story of surviving a drive-by shooting, hitting him directly in the head on September 5, 2010. Adam had a 1% chance of surviving his injury, but he's here with us to share details of his recovery and finding himself, and peace, along the way. Tara shares what occurred after the preacher banged on the door in the early hours to tell her she needed to call her sister who relayed the devastating news. Adam's advice to others just starting out - don't be afraid to ask for help. Tara seconds that thought, and also adds that finding the right doctor and rehabilitation team are vital. Not everyone is going to be a good fit. Keep looking for the one who supports your recovery goals and dreams. Thank you so much, Adam and Tara, for sharing your journey with us! ** Adam's incident is still an unsolved case.
