A Life Re-written by Brain Injury: David's Story

A Wareham man who sustained life-changing injuries in a cycling crash has joined a national brain injury awareness campaign led by Headway - the brain injury association.
In 2016, David Baker was cycling home from work, when he was involved in a serious incident. Now 49, David has no memory of the accident but has pieced the events together with the help of onlookers and photographs taken at the scene.
He said: “As I was cycling along, a transit van overtook me and turned onto its driveway. I had no time to react, apparently, and I went head-first into the side of the van.”
Despite wearing a cycling helmet that David said ‘100 percent’ saved his life, he sustained a traumatic brain injury, and his life was forever changed.
He’s now sharing his story as a part of Headway’s Action for Brain Injury Week, which runs May 20-26.
