Johnny Huggins is an award-winning drummer who said he has “played everything from the church to heavy metal.” And though he may have driven a truck to pay the bills and support his family, for Huggins, drumming isn’t a side hustle or hobby. It is very much a core part of who he is.

Sharon Krawl shares her story of survival and resilience following a brain injury – and how she eventually worked her way being a virtual Run, Walk & Roll participant in 2019.

Evan Eschker says he has been “technically pre-med since age eight.”

As traumatic brain injury survivors, we are faced with challenges we must overcome. Some small, some large, and a vast number of challenges the average individual most likely does not understand.

Life with an invisible disability can be…extra. While everyone knows not to park in a disability parking spot, not everyone may realize a person who has survived brain injury may also need some gentle accommodation. That’s where the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower comes in.

“Life is what happens when you’re making other plans” is a sentiment Katherine Wolf, a speech pathologist, stroke survivor, and mother of two children, deeply understands.
