Review for Brain Injury Association of Michigan, Inc., Brighton, MI, USA
I would like to share the many positive things that our done by the Brain Injury Assoc. of Michigan. I have been with the association for 10 years as a caregiver for a survivor plus in leadership for a local chapter. In the ten years that I have dealt with the main office and the national office, I have been very impressed with their committment that each and very one of them put forth. You will never be able to please everyone, especially people who have trouble with TBI's, caregivers and family members that are also going through rough times. There is not an organization in this world that doesn't have overhead costs to run them. I have dealt with several over my life time and can tell you that BIAMI does a marvelous job using their funds. As for all that politicial stuff that others complain about, you don't really understand the importance of making sure the world realizes what a TBI is and the seriousness of needing help for those people. In Michigan, if we lose No-Fault Car Insurance everyone will suffer, so its extremely important that you have someone fighting for it daily. BIAMI needs to be congradulated for lobbying for it, daily.
If it hadn't been for BIAMI, we would not have come this far. We had never heard of traumatic brain injuries and will never be able to thank them enough for all the detailed literature and vast amounts of materials that our made available.
If you feel that enough is not being done, then get involved and help the rest of us, who try daily to make other people lives better.
