Hello, I love to be involved in theatre, writing, Films and television. It is my hobby and a passion of mine. I never wanted to make big money or have fame; I just wanted to enjoy myself and be part of the show. In January 2021, I was in a terrible auto accident. I still have concussion issues and have some problems using my right arm and hand.
Having something called "Post Concussion Syndrome" differs from having broken limbs, large cuts, or scars. No visible bandages, no crutches or scooters or hospital beds.
This creates problems as people do not believe you or think you are milking the system or it cannot be that bad.
I am fortunate to have a supporting family, friends and associates in the film industry and some associates in theatre and writing have also been very kind to me.
I have had a few colleagues in my jobs that have been kind but not a great deal.
I have learned to survive brain fog and memory problems. Dark classes in public settings help, and I have written notes about where I am going and seeing help.
I owe an outstanding debt to some people in the entertainment and creative art community; they have been a lifeline to me.
