Debbie was in a horrible auto accident when she was 16 – hit by a drunk driver. She survived a coma but was left with a severe head injury. I got the opportunity to do a television documentary special on young survivors of head trauma/coma who were injured either drunk driving or by a drunk driver. Debbie and her mom were among the people whose stories I filmed. Extremely touching. So difficult to comprehend and even more difficult to figure out how to help people in this situation. Debbie has done well in life given the situation she found herself in but I do not know if she ever found a husband and had children. I admire all those who work with people attempting to get their lives back after severe head injury and I admire the coma foundation and the other nonprofit organizations who help.
