36. Family Matters Part 2 with Heidi & Braden Ulvild - Concussion

The Post Concussion Podcast - Life After A Brain Injury

In our previous episode, we spoke to Richard Ulvild who suffered a concussion four years ago in a serious car accident. Together with his wife Corinna, the couple shared the story of Richard’s mental and physical recovery and the support they received from their family.
Today we are joined by Braden and Heidi Ulvild, Rich’s adult kids, to hear their experience of living with a parent who is suffering from a concussion. Tuning in you’ll discover what it felt like for Braden and Heidi when their dad didn’t seem to be recovering and how it affected them when they weren’t able to help fix what was wrong. They open up about their dad’s struggles with not being able to sleep and how scary it has been seeing him try different medications that have temporarily turned him into a different person altogether. The siblings share helpful advice for the families of concussion survivors so listen in to hear the importance of educating yourself, why you shouldn’t take things personally, how to do what you can to create a stress-free environment, and some encouragement to stay motivated. Tune in for all this and more!
