I had an accident in May 2015 and suffered a TBI, 18 months later I suffered a grade 4 subarachnoid haemorrhage. I’ve lost everything, my career, my friends, my life. Having a brain injury is the worst experience I’ve ever been through, every day is a struggle still, which makes me really mad. Not having any friends is the hardest. I am so insecure it’s unbelievable. However, before my brain injury I was the life and soul of everything I was extremely happy, confident, I knew where I was going and knew what I wanted to do. I really hate my life now, the most painful part is my relationship with God, I struggle to read and write as I cannot process information easily any more. Thank you for sharing your brain injury and faith. Much love to you all xx
Your response left me with so much concern for you! I hope that - even in some small way - your confidence and your feelings of being alone have both improved. Take the time to be happy & enjoy whatever u can about how your life is now. I know feeling alone can be miserable but maybe you need this time just for you. Idk.
I hope & pray that life gets better for you tho!!!! 💕
God Bless You and Keep You...💗
I completely understand. TBI ruined me too. I will never be the same me.
You write amazingly well!!! Good for you!
I'll be your friend ♥️
In 1971, I became a TBI survivor. Today I'm 59 and living my life. Yes I still have problems, but every day I wake it's a gift.
Yeah im a severe TBI survivor im 30 yrs old now. 1991 I was 1 1/2 i survived having my head ran over by a car and my accident happened outta state. Everyday is a gift.
@@crazycutecatlady33 does your tbi still affect you?. I can't imagine having a brain injury as young as that.
I had my TBI in my teens
What are the problems? Thanks
What problems? I’m a brain injury survivor. Physically ok, but have massive emotional trauma that never lets up.
I agree
Corey was my moms roomie (Shelley) at Bryn Mawr Rehab...I will never forget her mom crawling into bed with her..snuggling...or the times when her sister would come to visit..you could visibly see Corey LOVE that her sister was there....The countless friends and awesome photos that brightened her room...I am so thrilled to see her making amazing progress...You are beautiful Corey!!!
OH this mom...... I am just sooo in admiration of her !!
Me too
“I don’t know what she can’t do, so I treat her like she can do anything.”
If only everyone in the world would look at people with special needs this way.
I suffered a TBI in 2015 at 19, I had two strokes one on the right side and one in the middle of my brain. I have had to relearn everything! I got my trachea and feeding tube out. I was in a coma for 3 weeks they said I would die. I have coils in my coratid artery and plates in my right arm! I just learned how to walk again! Still working on my left arm and I still suffer short term memory loss from the brain bleed! I just passed 3 years since the accident on November 1st! I'm going to college at TCC! Thank you for sharing your inspiring story!

Medical care should not be for profit.
US is pretty much the only 1st world country that has a for profit system that ends up killing or putting people in massive debt to get medical care. It's sad really.
@@beowulf8716 It's really not that simple. Countries with socialized healthcare have their own issues, mainly that they cannot support refugees or impoverished immigrants like the US does. Not just anyone can move to Canada or the UK. They have to be able to care for themselves or they will not be accepted. It's called point based immigration.
People from all over the world frequently come to the US from countries with socialized healthcare for medical treatment. Do you every stop to wonder why that is? Why do people choose to pay to go to the Mayo or Cleveland clinics rather than opt for their own "free" healthcare? My guess is, you get what you pay for, and for many, the money is worth the price of their lives. Groundbreaking research is funded by profit. There are all kinds of non-profit programs, charities and grants available in the US.
Resources are not infinite. You have to pick and choose. Cut off immigration and other programs to support our own citizens' personal needs? Or have the government act as our parent and provide all that we need through taxes? I can tell you that the latter option is deeply un-American in principle, and someone who doesn't agree had best be living in a different country rather than trying to change the core values of a country they don't like.
Please do not oversimplify and vilify things you don't understand. Get educated. Learn the benefits of for profit healthcare. Live as a chronically ill person under socialized healthcare, or worse still have a terminally ill child under socialized healthcare and have that child be refused treatment, treatment that you would gladly go into mounds of debt for but treatment that does not exist in your country. Then come back and share your opinion.
@@smittysmeee It truly is amazing how ill-informed you are. While social medicine is not perfect, it is virtually always better than the for profit model of the US, heck maybe that's why the US is the only 1st world country without social medicine...
Not just anyone can move to any country....all countries have requirements to be accepted as an immigrant. But in Canada, if you are an immigrant/permanent resident, you are covered by the province you live in within Canada just like a citizen. As for refugees, in Canada at least, they are also covered for medical issues but instead of being covered by the province they are in, it is the federal government that takes car of it until their status is decided, i.e. they are accepted or not as a refugee and progress to permanent resident and if they so choose citizenship. Canada, like pretty much all countries, does have rules where a person can be refused entry due to medical inadmissibility. This includes due to what the person has (medical condition) being a dangers to people already here (seen during COVID or Ebola outbreaks) or if the person has an existing LONG term medical issue that would be a burden on medical and/or social services. The US has the same thing under Chapter 11 of the US immigration policy manual.
And people from all over the world come to Canada for medical treatment including as many Americans that come to Canada as Canadians go to the US. It's amazing how people who back for profit medicine try an use this as proof that Canada's system sucks and are totally wrong. The most comprehensive look at this subject done in 2002 shows that of 18,000 Canadians asked if they have gone to the US for medical treatment, only 90 yes NINETY said yes. Out of those, 20 were elective and 70 were sent and had their bill paid by the Canadian government. www.vox.com/2016/10/9/13222798/canadians-seeking-medical-care-us-trump-debate
As for the quality of the medical system in the US, it is much lower than you probably think. Canadians get as good if not better treatment, have a higher quality of life and a higher life expectance than Americans. In virtually all rankings of healthcare by independent organizations Canada ranks higher than US and the US is most often below the 30th ranked country in the world.
You can say there are grants and this and that available in the US but the fact is people don't often get these. The US sees tens of thousands of people affected by medical bills each and every year. Depending on the year and the study I looked at, anywhere from 50 to 65% or personal bankruptcies in the US are due to medical expenses. And that does not take into consideration those that have to decide on food, shelter and other expenses or getting a needed medical procedure they need.
I also think that you need to wakeup and realize that the US, on average, leans much more socialist than people like you care to think. A Pew survey from just this past September 2020 shows that Americans want some form of socialized/universal healthcare..."Among the public overall, 63% of U.S. adults say the government has the responsibility to provide health care coverage for all, up slightly from 59% last year. Roughly a third (37%) say this is not the responsibility of the federal government, according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted July 27 to Aug. 2 among 11,001 adults."
Maybe you should learn a little more about your own country and its supposed values.
So I guess YOU should no speak of things you clearly do not understand. You are just so ignorant it is amazing, I live with a chronic condition, like my mother, I have an autoimmune disease that I was diagnosed just 18 months ago. My mom has lived with it for 40 years now and it has not cost her a penny for over a dozen surgeries to fix joints, having both knees replaced and all the doctors visits over the years. And no a terminal child or adult will not be refused treatment in Canada.
You are one ignorant arse of an American, you fit all the stereotypes of the 'Murica first and is the best people who are uneducated and hated the world over. Grow up and read a book and some studies of social medicine vs for profit and learn that for profit has very few advantages unless you have tons of money. Heck I would not be surprised if you were one of the Americans that come to Canada to buy medication because it is actually affordable here....you know the buses and buses of seniors and others that cross the border into Canada each day to get life saving medication at a fraction of the cost!
It's so hard for people in the USA in regards to healthcare. It's amazing how Corey is responding to everything she's going through. What a supportive mom you are and sister.
Health care in the USA is a nightmare.
@@jackielong9927 I had to cure myself.
I needed to see this today.. I am a TBI survivor myself and this makes me realize I am lucky I can walk,drive and live independently...
I'm going through a rough patch.. I've had several in the last 23 years..
Hope the sleep disorder does not arrive to keep you from getting through a day.
@@RoadRunnergarage8570 Blessings and peace!
Corey sure picked the right mom...and the right family.
God bless them all!
Thanks for sharing your story. Never give up Corey.
I suffered a tbi 13 yrs ago. My prognosis was grim and they lost me four times. From that and through the love and support of my family I have come an incredibly long way, against all the medical prognosis.
Brain injuries take a long, long time to evolve and to repair.
My Aunt sent me a card many years ago which I still keep in my wallet. On it is the following:
'Don't Quit'
When you are at your lowest
And ready to give in
Grit your teeth and start again
Remember you can win
Every day that you wake up
Be determined in your mind
That you'll enjoy it to the full
I think that you may find
Each day is like a bonus
And what more could you ask
God will lend a hand as well
And help you with this task
Strength will come with each new day
Growing bit by bit
I believe that you can do it
So just for me...don't quit.
Never give up Corey. You WILL get there!
God bless you.
karl sumner God bless you 🙏
The don't quit poem is wonderful
You are such a wonderful
Person Corey's Mom... Thank you so much for sharing..
Thank you for the hope. My wife has M.S. The Ins, co. Have given up on her. I love your story. I will pray that God heals completely.
How is Corey today ?
I too had a TBI ... no oxygen for 20-30 minutes . I received NO help and during the first three years I wished they'd just let me die.
BUT the brain is an amazingly plastic organ and the following 7 years i re-learned everything . Still cannot do math or smell or taste but i drive again .... Life is good !
My son suffered a TBI last week. His outcome is unknown. I committed my life to him prior to the event, but now I am even more solidified to serve him in any capacity he needs. I love him more than I've loved anything before! Thanks for the nice video.
+Christopher Hansen
I hope your son gets better, it's so great you are there for him.
I know this is a year after you wrote here, he'll still be needing you.
Christopher Hansen
Trust him ..... let him know that it can only get better from here on in .
You son is light years ahead with your attitude !
Take care of yourself so you can be strong for him .
Best wishes,
Mark.
Thora Friganza Wow, thanks for the prompt to revisit this video. He was 10, is almost 17 now, and he is doing well. His personality is 110% intact, motor functions and processing about 95%. He can throw a frisbee like a BOSS! This video completely changed my outlook on his bleak situation at the time and watching it again made me really grateful. He was unconscious for about three weeks so we had no clue what was in his future when I first watched this. HE FREAKIN’ MADE IT!!!
@@christopherhansen3557 I am so glad you son is doing well ❤️
He will need that so much. I had one person that committed themself to me and it made all the difference. It’s been 3 years for me and I still need that person. My prayers are will you Christopher.
You deserve mom of the year. You and Corey are such an inspiration to all of us. May god grant you peace and harmony during these tough times. God be with you both!
My family is going through the beginning stages with my nephew. He was in a coma for a month after a car accident, now he's in a rehab n can't speak or move that well. Thank you for posting this video to give us some insight of our long road ahead. With God all things are possible Corey, keep pushing and you will get there!
One important thing to know is that doctors can say anything, but it isn't always the truth, since they base their diagnosis on what they've seen other people with the same diagnosis as your nephew and put everyone in the same boat, when they shouldn't.... Because not everyone has the same drive to survive and miracles happen every day.... So even if a doctor says: "Oh he'll never walk, talk or move again..." DO NOT BELIEVE HIM, since ONLY God knows your nephews outcome... Praying for a full recovery, God bless❤❤❤
God bless the mother for soooo much love. I wish my mother had that much love. Cory has the best suport system. God speed your recovery.😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Marie Beattie took this on like a tigress to rehabilitate her daughter. Corey has made great strides because of a mother's love and determination against a system that short-changes young adults who have everything to live for and everything to gain in their recovery. She is a heroine to all those who have been tragically affected by a traumatic brain injury.
As someone with a TBI, it is life changing! My accident was on 1/01/1994 and it still haunts me.
Pray for my nephew he had a stroke I believe in miracles God is great
Those are genuine smiles. A different life than before, but very blessed.
A beautiful video and truly moving story. Wish though as I may, I would love to donate to Corey's care but as an Advocate for People and Families Living with Brain Injury AND a person living with a severe brain injury I can barely afford to support myself. I am now 20 years out from my accident.
Please everyone - take brain injury seriously! We are people, human beings and need the care that so many others get. Brain Injury is the greatest cause of disability in the U.S. far exceeding cancer
Hi Marie and Caitlin,
Thank you for creating this video presentation. You did an excellent job. Thank you for sharing your journey and process with Corey. Corey is a miracle. I believe that there is tremendous power in identification. Because I believe in the power of identification, please take the time to read about my journey and my process on Second Chance to Live on my about page. If I can be of service to you or Corey, please let me know Marie and Caitlin. Thank you. Craig.
The insurance company are like vampires . ..🐱👤
it would be amazing to get an update of her!
I’m an ER nurse and I would feel just as confused and devastation
Very touching story. God bless the family. Thank you for sharing.
It's such an amazing story! We had a class together last year, encounters with food. We didn't talk, but I remember how shocked the entire class was. What an inspiring story about overcoming the obstacles! Anything can be done!
Wow! This video has me in tears! Such a beautiful, hopeful video amd people! My brother currently is in a VS, with a TBI, and his name is Corey! Bless you all! Hope you all are doing well!
What a great mom. Wishing Corey all the best in her recovery. ❤
Thank you Jesus
A decade on, this crash still has impact. Let's be careful out there! Audience wishes her all the best. Cheers!
The way she says....."YEAH"....is all i would need to keep going....I couldnt imagine a life without hearing her say that one word...and how cute she says it.
I had a TBI when I was 16 in 1990, I can tell you that it is great to push through each accomplishment without worrying about the stress of the process. I will say though I graduated high school afterwards and got my Medical Assistant certification however I was only able to work for 6 years and ended up on SSI. I was one of the lucky ones and I can’t work,so I’m not sure how much improvement can be made in the workplace for people that can only handle so much before it is too much
I suffered 2 TBI'S in February 2013. Just passed the 10 year point. A week after the 2nd TBI I had a seizure.
The "me" I was died 10 years ago.
I grieve her everyday.
I had to leave a career I loved.
Lost friends, don't like the new me. Me either, but I'm stuck with her.
2005 same thing happened to me T boned serious TBI developed multiple rare medical issues lifelong. Had to relearn to talk walk read. I had a 4 year old planned funeral 2009 did last trip. 17 years later still climbing uphill battle but more functional. One second changed my life forever lost everything including daughter and family, home career. Multiple DAI But always work hard to heal SLP OT PT rehab for walking relearn balance, fix eyes and brain connection again. Vestibular injury sending prayers
My life was changed forever after police chased someone into me at speeds they had to lie about. I got checked out, they said I was fine and 3 years later I was hospitalized, couldn’t breathe, wasn’t making sense, and when I came back I had lost use of much of my body.
From here doctors promised I wouldn’t get better. I was in so much pain suicide was my only option if I couldn’t get the pain to settle down.
From this horrid state I started to learn to communicate with my body again. Now I’m back to weightlifting and the parts of my body that are still weird, I think about very differently. I tell myself my body is confused, that it thinks it’s paralyzed but it’s not. I can convince myself this is true and as I do I regain more and more use of my body. Doctors and insurance were awful. If I could go back with the knowledge I have now I would have never wasted my time seeing doctors who don’t understand the body. What Im finding as I forget the brain damage is the new pathways Im developing are healthier even than what I had before the accident! Starting to do impossible things in the gym even!. There is nothing but hope for patients with brain injury!
PS by far the most helpful thing for recovery has been marijuana. CBD and hemp are great but theres really something to the high THC. I noticed my right hand (the worst area) would have much more feeling about 15 minutes after using some. I followed this lead with my mind, staying high for months and learning what the cannabis was doing to my nervous system that restored feeling. Now I have learned to do this on my own! Many doctors give me a hard time about marijuana, have prescribed medicine in hopes I would take antidepressants instead, and even had my insurance billed as though I’d been treated for addiction to it. All the same doctors that wanted me to accept not being myself. If I’d listened my life would be miserable and not worth living.
My Son had a terrible accident. Got Lifelined to Hospital. He is Tramatic Brain Injury Survivor. By the grace of God Amen
What lovely ladies, God Bless❤❤
What is the good of technology when we need it most of us can’t afford it. Why is a life based on the amount of money we have or don’t have. God bless you Corey and your family and friends for helping and loving you. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💕💕💕💕💕💐💐💐💐💐
Thank you for sharing your awesome story. As a TBI SURVIVOR myself living with it for 20 years. isn’t the easiest to live with.
My dad was at the end of his lung cancer and we decided to do home hospice and we brought him home. After he died, the insurance company did not want to pay for the last week because they claimed he could walk into the house on his own~ even though~ we had to carry him, he couldn't walk nor talk and was gone mentally and physically. The only reason we knew he was semi-conscious was because he was grimacing and twisting and contorting and pain. he only lived for a week once he got home but the dirty ass Insurance Company, refuse to pay the bill claiming he was fine after a year of fighting we won
What a fantastic mother. She does a tremendous job....they both are beautiful women.:)
How is cory doing today?
I had a TBI n broken left femur in a car wreck in 1997. All the therapies untill I graduated high school in 98. Insurance sent me home bf I was better. Thankfully found a NHC bear to go to to finish out patiently.
That’s love ❤️
Great story about the strongest family I know - so proud of Corey
A mother's love for her children is powerful.
How could a loving God allow this the mother said. God does not promise protection from harm in this world. He promises us a heaven life after this world.
She is lucky to have you as a mother...! You are une though amazing lady.
You have a great doctor. Insurance is a mess just like special education. You are always measured against one standard. You stick with it AND LEAVE. A paper trail- you will get more action. Hang in there- I am praying for you.
Very, very well done video. I'm a bit tired of seeing just pictures with no explanation. What a great family she has!
Trish Doran thanks for watching! The Photos are there to give a glimpse into Corey’s life. There’s a part two on our TH-cam channel :)
@@jcr02176 I'll watch!
This is beautiful. Corey is in my prayers.
That's awesome how you got the Van. Corey can still enjoy family trips and enjoy family time together she's beautiful ❤ be blessed Corey anything is possible. God bless you always
In agnostic but open to religion. Not sure what type to look into. Catholic,Mormons or Christianity? I have a lot of mental issues that I haven't been able to fix. Not sure if religion is the answer. I just don't know anymore. Just want to find some peace in my life
Religion or faith seem to help many people in every day life and hardship. Find a non oppressive and non judgmental religion/church. Prayers can be a way to help to deal with moral problems.
Best wishes from Sweden 🌹
You bet about the college. Under the ADA, accommodations must be provided in higher education and in trade schools.
My bf's best friend had a TBI after wrecking his bicycle at 2am! (He rides 100's of miles and just hopped on to go see his brother before he left for florida) He currently is in a medically induced coma and has a skull fracture AND surgery to remove part of him skull to give his brain more room to swell. You normally don't put someone in a coma AND remove part of their skull... He has been in a coma for the last ten days with no end in sight yet. They first said it'd be only 4-5 days... They have lifted the meds a couple times to make sure that he is still responsive and he is. But only time will tell. I technically should be dead of a TBI after getting into a head on crash when I was 14. I saw the car coming and grabbed my setbelt which gave me enough room to hit the seat in front as well as in back. There were literal indentation made into the metal by my head. I've never been the same and now suffer from RSD and my sleep has been screwed up ever since. I went from sleeping 14+hrs and barely being able to function to not sleeping at all for ten day.s
+Valerie Sherman
I hope he is well as he can be now.
I was hit while on my bike too, (TBI) So I get it.
Many people in these circumstances are not this lucky. Bankrupting families because they cannot work caring for the injured, poor social support, no insurance at all, no mobility as the vehicles are expensive. Truely sad.
Stay strong young lady
Prayers from Arkansas
Mom. You are wonderful and you will be blessed.
Faith in Christ Jesus makes the difference!
Fun to watch her evolve once again.
A mother's strength is born out of love and has no boundaries ❤ .
It's been 10 years so I'm curious as to how she is now.
Hoping for a full recovery for Corey. Stay strong.
That Dr is so cute. She looks like a wonderful person
Here you have a beautiful young lady whose already beaten SO MANY ODDS & surpassed any goal that couldve been imagined by any doctor &yet STILL she has to fight even more because for some reason money is more important than a miracle. What these people dont understand is the love a mother has for a daughter is untouchable. with that anything is possible the more these crazy people say no, the harder we will all fight for Corey. I LOVE YOU BEATTIE FAMILY. Corey never gave up, so neither will we!
😢
I had a tbi accident in november 1980 with a crushed left temporal lobe 13cm x 15cm and back of head crack damage and was in a coma for 29 days. Then into a neurological section of the hospital for another 4weeks and then a rehabilitation centre for 2 years. Its the first 10 years thats the hardest then sometimes we can dramatically get better and sometimes not be that lucky. But seeing what you are doing with your Daughter is amazing its the love and time which you give that is a major part of survival. Seeing this video is wonderful in seeing the mental improvements in her facial expessions are worth every second you are with her. Keep doing the things you do.

Such you are both doing such a great job I know every one of these things is difficult even the van thank you so much for sharing this video it's very encouraging.
god bless corey.
Hi Corey! I love your story!! I am an occupational therapy student at the University of St. Augustine, and am doing a project for my neurorehab class on traumatic brain injuries. I chose your story to write my portfolio on! You have made some amazing progress, and I would love a chance to talk to you if you get this in the next few days. If you do get this, can you please send me your email address??
Thank you so much!

Hi Rachel!
Thanks so much for checking out Corey's videos! I'll let Corey and her mom know you want to connect them.

I suffered a devastating car accident in 1987 at the age of 11. I had severe facial injuries with permanent nerve damage as well as a TBI. My brain injury is a axonal brain injury. In 1987 there was no MRI’s and drs knew very little about brain injuries so all I was treated for was a mild concussion.Although my parents were told my brain injury was to deep in the brain to show up in any scans. I’m on disability do to this accident primarily from my TBI. I also broke every bone in my mid face as if a bomb went off in my face. I lost the bone in my nose. I’ve undergone over 28 surgeries from the age of 11 till I was 23.
An INSURANCE COMPANY is a business? How 'bout the HOSPITALS that charge $40 for aspirin, etc. etc. etc.?
This made me cry. I was a group home manager for 14 years and as much good as Dr’s and Surgeons can do they can’t make truly accurate guesses on someone’s prognosis because human beings have incredibly strong souls and God designed our bodies as self healing masterpieces. So much of what goes wrong with us comes from poisons and calamity in our environment. I really admire Corey and her Mom and know Corey will blow people’s minds no matter how many obstacles she faces. Surviving everything she went through that first night in the hospital you know she’s a fighter :)
Cute mom
Watching this just makes you feel like ANYTHING is possible when you work hard for it. Corey's ongoing journey is moving, motivational and inspiring.
Unbelievable story. So amazing to see how miracles do happen everyday. Thanks for sharing your story, I'm sure it will inspiring to others!
We are very lucky in the UK,we have the NHS.sending my love from one mother to another.how is Corey presently?have you raised any more funding?xx
Look for the big blue book by the Culinary Arts Institute from the 1970's. It has some of the best info on techniques and recipes of any cooking book I ever came across. A Chef I worked for in Maui Hawaii introduced it to me. Miles Cobbett, Author of the book Champion
I've had brain cancer when I was 40 so I could relate to this. I hope to God that she is still AT IT... I am!🕊
It's just so tragic that in a 1st world country such as the US your recovery can be down to one question. Can you afford it?
American healthcare is ridiculous. I live in Australia and all the hospital treatment, rehab and some home modifications are free. No insurance needed.

Just so sad 😢
I know any one with a brain injury can do anything they just need good rehabilitation and good support I have 10 brain injuries my first was in 1995 and my last was covid like I believe around 2 years ago but I have fought to recover my worst was after my car wreak in 1995 and I developed septic shock from MRSA at the time they didn't know what MRSA was and couldn't get it under control then I got back into working firefighting and got hurt after my fake leg failed causing me to fall and as I did I hurt my stump I was flown to a area trauma center where the MRSA was already in the stump and they knew about MRSA but fought and lost and had to amputate further up talking my knee off now I'm a above knee amputee I've had 10 brain injuries I've had 2 young strokes I wasn't able to talk I wasn't able to eat without choking but without the support of family good rehabilitation I would still be in a nursing home tied to the bed because I didn't understand I could hurt myself if I moved to wrong got fed by a tube into my stomach and couldn't understand people talking to me none other I survived let me know if you understand this is the recovery
