At 10 years post combat and post Traumatic Brain Injury, our daughter, Kimberly Fix, has lived with 24/7/365 care, on a feeding tube, and with diminished hope of any physical and mental improvements to gain in the reduced time she will likely live -until HBOT 4 Heroes gave us a path toward hope. This funded program has given us hope for a quality of life improvement for Kimmy, and we haven't had that for eight years. Kimmy's TBI put her in a coma for over a year, and the doctors didn't think she would ever come out of the vegetative state of her coma. But she did. She has fought to improve since, but we saw Kimmy plateau in her improvements, even though she never gave up. Since we began HBOT treatments, Kimmy has become more alert, has slept three times longer each night, and she is stronger in her effort to stand and walk. Her shaking movements are all but gone. In the picture below, Kimmy is walking with her physical therapist. HBOT has given us hope again. To watch Kimmy's quality of life improving, even in small margins is like a dream awakening for all of us.
