Dear VA Secretary Collins

We are appealing to you to change the culture at the VA from one of “brain wounds are a mental health issue” to one of: “brain wounds like TBI/PTSD/PCS/BLAST/Concussion must be treated like a wound and healed using modern, proven, scientifically validated alternative therapies.” Brain wounds — TBI/PTSD/PCS/BLAST/Concussion — are wounds. They can be treated. The world outside the VA is treating them with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), doing the job your VA cannot and will not do.

Thank You for Your Sacrifice

What do the pictures have in common? The faces of brain injured Warriors and athletes who sacrificed, not just served. And too many dead with undiagnosed brain wounds.

We’re twenty-four years out since 9/11. On the order of fifteen thousand Americans — roughly seven thousand U.S. service members and about eight thousand U.S. military contractors — have been killed in the post-9/11 wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and related theaters, according to the best available research. Ten times that number are dead from suicide over the same period, and 877,000+ Veterans and millions of citizens suffer with untreated brain wounds.

The VA is Radioactive for Too Many Veterans

Here is the crux of why so many Veterans consider the VA toxic and “radioactive.” They stay away or abandon the VA because the culture and practice of the VA — medicine in general — is to treat brain wounds like they do mental health symptoms. No brain wound healing is possible in the current system. Pills and talk therapy rule.

Helping the VA do the Right Things, Starting with Suicide Prevention

Inform Veterans about alternatives to pharmaceuticals; alternative, non-invasive, proven therapies like Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) that actually heal brain wounds instead of the “mental health” approach: masking and palliating symptoms forever. . . . or until the Veteran disappears or succumbs to suicide.

Concussion Remission and CTE – Part 2

There should be no excuse for doctors and medical staff in the military and professional and college and high school sports that they remain “alter-ignorant” about how to properly diagnose and heal brain wounds. Concussion and CTE are hardly back-water areas of medicine. And the science and peer-reviewed research continues to pile up that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy allows for the remission if not complete healing from brain wounds of all kinds.

Coming to Scientific Grips with CTE

CTE is a progressive neurodegenerative disease linked to repetitive head trauma, often seen in athletes, military veterans, and others exposed to repeated brain injuries. CTE might start with the first Concussion. Recent research on acute concussions by Dr Daphne Denham demonstrates brain wound healing and symptom reduction/eradication within four Hyperbaric Oxygen sessions.

PTSD “Awareness” Update: 20-year longitudinal data study after 9/11

The month of June was intended to give more time and visibility to education, advocacy, and support for those affected by post-traumatic stress disorder—both veterans and civilians alike. 15 years later, we still have an epidemic of suicides in service members: now over 153,000 since 9/11. Cases of PTSD are on the rise, owing in part to the COVID pandemic and the effects of long-haul COVID.
