My name is LoriPurdy Faitel and I am your host for THE SCIENCE OF HAPPINESS.  I am a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Survivor from a car accident in 1986. I was pulled from my car by the jaws of life and admitted to the hospital in a coma with a TBI. That was a long time ago and I have recreated who I am. Today I am a happy functional and productive person living in the world of the  non-brain injured  - the NORMALS, as I like to call them.  Before the injury I worked for a real estate board. I was secretary for the CEO of the board. THEN driving to work one day a construction truck dropped a stack of hay onto my windshield, I lost control of my car and spun into cement construction materials. About 4 years after the injury & extensive therapy, I returned to college. I earned a degree - Occupational Therapy Assistant. I have worked for more than 20 years in rehab and for the past 2 + years I have specialized in TBI. Join me tonight as I interview a man who also works with TBI at a facility with me. We will discuss the benefits of DRUMMING THERAPY. I will also share some info that I have found from other survivors and somethings that I have personally found to strengthen my ability to be happy.  I pray you will get insight from my show and expand your happiness.
